I have several customers asking for replacement faces and wires for car stereos. I got wires from metra, but they don't have a good selection, specially for old stereos. and the replacement faces are hard to find. even from the manufacturer, and the prices are insane. I can get the whole stereo @ wholesale price, for less. please help me if you guys know a place where i can order most of this stuff directly from a distribuitor.

There prices are insane for a reason, to detour from theft, if face plates were cheap just think about how many more stereos would be stolen. Think about it, if someone comes into your store asking for a wiring harness and a face plate then chances are the radio is stolen.

auex is exactly right, what kind of theft deterent is it if someone can just get a new faceplate for $20?
