The Bowman radio that came in my car is not working, I’d like to have it repaired and possibly add a Bluetooth receiver.
Does anyone on 914 World do this or can you recommend someone?

Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Bowman was the cheap cheap aftermarket radio many dealers installed as an option in new customer deliveries to make an extra hundred by offering an am fm or am fm stereo. They are very very period correct but so cheaply made that if they do not work they are not worth repairing unless your labor is free. Best to install a period correct blaupunkt frankfurt and have a high quality period correct radio that works great. You can also get it with the blue tooth connector
