    Recent purchase an untested old school Alpine head unit and equalizer model 7282E /3210.
    Initial power up check after tidy up the messy wiring.. chiclet buttons no light, main display dim, test on the casette having bad wow flutter and scratchy volume control..

    Walk you through the restoration and modification process..

    Tapping 12volt source to the LED strip since the lamp output voltage is insufficient.

    Be resourceful searching the whole house to find a filter, manage to get the closest green from a plastic wrapper.
