looks like lots of people are getting rid of their factory radios and looking for things to fill the changer slot... someone here has already done this, but i figured id post it again.. Saab 900 turbos have cupholder/coinholders that fit into a din slot, would work great in the VX i think... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Coin-Cup-Holder-DIN-SAAB-900-Turbo-Convertible-9000-N-R_W0QQitemZ270030424637QQihZ017QQcategoryZ63691QQr dZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Nice find, but I think you'd have to fabricate a custom bracket or sleeve to mount in the VX (especially the lower slot) as while DIN sized the mounting isn't standard DIN.

That one in the auction is from a Mercury Sable. I think the ebay seller made a mistake in the description-? I don't think GM-owned SAAB would be using Ford parts?
