The stock 93 cobra radios are no different than the GT or LX radios of the same era. Regarding fitment to your car, what year do you have? Ford changed the amp wiring style in the early 90's, so, it may not work.

hmm. they show one o-ebay that looks hella nice and looks way different than my 92 stock radio!

The '93 radios are very slightly different in cassette trim BUT it was also the first year that ford offered a CD player. The CD units are the ones that came standard in the Cobra and are very similar to the systems found in 94-98 cars.

The amp wiring for 93 is completely different so it won't be a direct fit

damn. i thought a factory cd player in my 92 gt would look good.

oh well

My 93 had a am/fm cassette factory....as did my dad's 93 cobra #4969

The CD player was strictly an option in '93, most cars were delivered with cassette.

I don't remember where I read that all Cobras had CD... obviously I'm wrong

The door jam sticker is always a good way to tell what radio the car came with... The number 5 to the right of the letter R is a factory CD player car.
