My 1995 Nissan Cassette Radio has started to have two problems.
1. The LCD display is now all black, guess the detailer pressed to hard on
it cleaning the thing.
2. The volume control has become intermittent, sometimes loud, sometimes
soft, wiggle it and it becomes normal. I did take it out and resolder it's
connections on the PCB as that is also the power button, but no luck.
First up, this is a normal non-Bose system.
So, I figure I should treat myself to a replacement.
1. I can get a system from a wrecked Nissan car, anything from 95 to 99 will
fit without modification.
2. I could purchase a new unit and wire it in with adapter cables. Choices
here are Sony, Pioneer, JVC, Kenwood, Aiwa and Jensen.
I wanted a cassette, but they are becoming quite rare, everything is going
CD.
So, what brands do you prefer or do you go for the Nissan unit from a wreck.
Post you opinions please.

Since you want cassette, your best bet is to try EBAY. I believe the
harness for most late model Nissan's is the same but if you want to be
extra sure, you can bid on one from a Maxima. They are usually pretty
cheap. Had I known people actually wanted cassette, I would have not
thrown out the stock unit when I upgraded the headunit!

they still make cassette decks from brands like Pioneer, Alpine, and
Kenwood, all are ok.

just select your vehicle from the list and it should tell you what fits. If
you buy from that website, it should include the wiring harness and other
accessories for free and the directions needed to hook it up.
