Keystone Cougar audio upgrade

Not knowing exactly what your OEM radio looks like or the size of it, I imagine some fabrication of the mounting location will be necessary. As for wiring, the OEM will likely have a wiring harness (plug and play) like most car stereos have today. Each wire should have a tag on it for what it's for so if you do buy a car stereo to replace the radio you have it won't be too difficult to wire it up. I replaced all of my speakers with Polk speakers and the sound difference was dramatic. I had a crappy Jensen OEM radio and replaced it with a different crappy Jensen radio but at least now I have bluetooth and it was the same footprint so I had no fabrication to do. I also got rid of the silly FM antenna that's provided and now have it hooked up to the rooftop TV antenna. If you do anything like that, just make sure you turn the antenna toward the city the station is located to get good reception.

Yeah, OEM replacement is high on my list. So you went with the Jensen as opposed to a home-type setup. And that's working ok? Speaker and receiver replacement is high on my list, and so is Polk Audio. Have always been impressed with Polks since I first bought a pair back in the '70s. How do you like them? Did you have to buy some kind of brackets to fit them on the ceiling? I also did the antenna thing for FM, and lo and behold, I now can get some FM stations. As far as satellite radio, I have a separate system for that; I bring my portable from home w/ antenna and tune it to the same frequency as my crappy receiver and it plays through the speakers. I would like to have satellite built into my receiver, but I'd probably have to pay more money for their service, and that ain't gonna happen.
