What was the OEM head unit for my '89?

I bought my car with an aftermarket unit and am interested in finding an original head unit for my car, just to have for posterity, and wondered if anyone knew what the OEM unit was.

Thanks.

Hi,
I believe it came with a Reno.

Check the options tag on the underside of your hood. It will tell which radio.

Fantastic, thanks.

I'm hoping to hunt for one at Hershey next week.

Mr. B -

The tag should show option code '158' for . I was able to find two Reno SQR46s last year at Hershey after searching for a while. I think the company was DC Automotive (dismantlers), and they had a few huge blue bins full of old radios. I had the help of a few friends in sorting through, but was able to find a 'good' radio and a 'bad' radio, bought together for a decent price (maybe $75?). I then sent both to Stefan at SW Stereo who did his magic and returned one fully functional and restored radio to me.

Hope that helps.

- Mike

sorry - I shouldn't use brackets in a post - still learning...

I meant to say - "...Option Code 158 for Radio "Monterey"-86 "Reno" - 87
