After careful examination of Joe's pictures, I agree that the gold trim
belongs on a 1979 Caddy and not on an expensive radio. TT used something
similar on the 350 with a cheap looking chrome trim and it makes a nice
looking rig look like a nine dollar Chinese portable radio. It is a classey
looking rig, so please leave off the gold trim.

Nay, nay ... it's meant to be "Orion-a-tious" ... (i.e. new trendsetter)
