Got my 40 radio modified so it gets AM, FM but more importantly has a thumb drive that I use exclusively. Constant music with no static. Downloaded MP3 from the net. Went to a guy in Florida. He can do 6v or 12v. Not cheap though. Radio will be stripped except for the tuner and converted to solid state. I went with the Aurora conversion and larger speakers under the front seat. Sounds great, still on 6 volts positive with a 12V negative tap for 12 v accessories. The old original radios were not very good and tons of static.
