I have a 1998 with the stock radio and I need the small lense or window that is on the upper right side. The one that I have is very scratched up. If you have extra parts and can help me out let me know. Thanks

The same head units have been used in a lot of GM vehicles. You can probably find the part in a junk yard ;)

Funny you post this... I had a radio at work today that had gotten scratched up on the display. Its a factory Honda radio...
I took the face plate off the radio and put blue painters tape around the display to protect the painted surface. Wet sanded
it with 2000 wet sand paper till the scratches were all gone. Then took Mothers metal polish (paste) and put it on a small polishing
wheel for my dremel. Put on low speed and made thee passes cleaning it off in between passes. Good as new!!!
