Yea, many car company's do it...It may not be the SAME exact radio out of the Liberty BUT they may look alike...Chrysler carries there radio's through their cars, jeep, dodge etc...GM does the same thing....

Yes but one is 45-50K, the other 76-80K.

Quite a price difference for the exact same radio in a PT cruiser.....



Cadillac XLR, 76K, different radio/navi than in chevy cars, even different than the STS radio.

your payin $80k for the 8L V10 on a lightweight carbon fiber body. Screw the radio if you own a viper, i'd pull that out, and take out the ac, ill only want power windows and power locks everything else will be manual.

If you're listening to the radio in your Viper,
you need bigger ***** and a heavier foot.

I agree, if I were driving a viper, forget the radio, I'd be listening to the engine, the exhaust, and lets not forget the important one, the sound of women's underwear hitting the pavement as I drove by.

Lame, I know, but someone had to say it and get it out of the way.

alot of the chrysler radios are made by infinity with infinity speakers, turn em all the way up and they'll make your ears bleed

alot of the kia optima's come with an infinity sound system that is super awesome

Even though they look the same the internals of the radios are usually different depending on what audio options are ordered.

Some are dead heads while some have internal amplifiers.

Ya but im pretty sure the original motor concept they had was like 750hp and 940trq or something absolutely ridiculous like that.... We had some engineers come to my last shop and they had the said the first batch of test 65s were grenading diffs on 2-1 or 3-2 downshifts.... they had said one of the test drivers had gotten hurt pretty bad... bunch of shrapnel came through the car and got him pretty good...
