Re: anyone have a phono in their car?

As mentioned, Chrysler offered HIway Hifi starting in 1956, used
a 7 inch 16rpm record and used a special .5mil stylus made by
shure.
RCA offered an aftermarket 45 rpm changer (also sold under the
Allstate/Sears and Wards/Riverside brands) that would play up
to 15 45 rpms records automatically. it connected and played
thur the cars radio. The records were played upside down with
a heavy tracking force of 18 grams, it did work and did not skip.
Phillips/Norelco also offered an aftermarket 45 rpm player that
played one 45 at a time, you inserted the record into a slot,
much like todays car CD players.
