Ok, here are all 3 of the radios offered on the 1992 Firebird as scanned from the 1992 brochure:
These 3 should be the standard as far back as 1989 but anything before that I am not sure of, but I know the CD was not available before 89...

Ok, so why doesn't anyone else have a yellow dot on the volume ****?
Both my 91 birds have a yellow dot on the volume ****. Both radios are stock 91 bird radios, and both came from different sources... so whats the story?
The stock 86-87 radios, and the 91 radio in my Maro are without the yellow dot, so it appears to be a 91'ish bird feature only.

Here's my 82 AM/FM stereo, no tape. It was the default for all 'Birds that year, but is actually pretty rare because it was unpopular and most cars had upgrades, all the way up to UM6. 7 total radios to choose from, plus I heard something about a dealer-installed 8-track player option, so that would be 8. Mine is the standard radio for 1982 and the code is U58. All mechanical.. even the AM/FM switch. The only thing digital is the clock display, but being a heat-activated filament display, it's actually old-school analog:hail:

this is a really old picture... REALLY... OLD... like circa 1998 or 99... back when I was still using a 35mm camera, having pictures developed, then scan them, then crop, upload, etc... but anyway... here you can see the radio with the yellow dot on the volume ****. My other 91 bird deck is the same way, but its the EQ cassette deck.

Here are my radios. Not the best pics, but I really don't have better ones at the moment:
1985 UM6 : RADIO, AM/FM STEREO, SEEK/SCAN, AUTO REV CASS
1984 UL1 : RADIO, AM/FM STEREO CLOCK ETR
1982 ??? I think it's a UN3. This particular radio I'm pretty sure did not come from an F-Body since it has chrome trim on the button faces. But this is what came in my 82 T/A when I bought it. It's invalid; car calls for U58 which I showed up a few posts

My 91 TA had the exact same radio as in the brochure right down to the yellow dot on the volume ****. I replaced it with a Pioneer unit because the tape player never worked and it only tuned into about 3 stations good.

Here's my 98 Delco AM/FM CD in my 88 IROC. I wanted a stock look and a CD player that would play recorded CD's.

Allan, did you have to trim anything to get that radio in there? I remember a while back I tried to put a radio just like that from a 99 S-10 into my old 85 Camaro and it wouldnt fit.

There was an eight track option. i was looking in my big book the other day and was in the options code section and there was an option for an 8-track player.
