All, When I got my van, an 87, I put in a Sony head unit because the night before I bought it the van had been burglarized of its old one. Worst piece of electronics I ever paid for. Bad FM, incredibly bad ergonomics, just terrible. In addition when I don't drive the van for four days or so it draws the battery flat. And no, it's not on but the display is lit. Doesn't seem possible that it could draw that much but the battery's OK if I just disconnected the display face plate when I leave it for a while. Question is how long driving at highway speeds to completely charge a battery? Group 46 I think. Mike |
