Play any audio on your Classic AM Radio - RediRad and hidden Bluetooth install on our Plymouth Fury

We love cruising in our 1967 Plymouth Fury - and love that it's original AM radio works. But there's really not much on AM anymore. I wanted to keep the stock radio, yet I also wanted to listen to bluetooth audio from my phone.

FM Modulators are easy to find - but what about AM Modulators? Fortunately there is the RediRad! (https://redirad.com/) This is a unit, Made in USA, that takes your audio and transmits it over 1000khz AM - it's super easy to install, and works great!

We also added a Bluetooth adapter to our install - an add-on piece. In this video we will show how we installed, how we got the Bluetooth adapter to work with our RediRad, and how it all sounds - which is awesome by the way - like modern tunes over AM.

Wire Terminal ends - if you don't have these, best to buy an assortment, or hit up local parts stores for the ones you need. Here are some possible assortments that may work - I used what I had around the shop...

Remember, even if these are insulated terminals, you can easily remove that, crimp them using non-insulated die in the Astro tool above, and heat shrink.

I think that's it but will add anything I may have missed...thank you for watching!
