I did my first car stereo upgrade when I was 17. Cassettes were well established, but I had an 8-track collection I got from older siblings and everything I put in the car had to come from a discount rack, so 8-tracks it was.
A Craig (remember them?) under dash unit with a whopping 15 watts per channel in simulated quadraphonic sound with an FM tuner built in (lots of cars then had just an AM tuner from the factory) and I forget what the speakers were. Probably Craig or Jensen, which by today's standards were crap but were so far beyond anything you could get from the factory at the time that they sounded amazing.
