Anybody Has A 'HOT' Radio?

[catalina25]

This is really weird! About a month ago I happen to switch station on the radio and I noticed that the button was warm, I felt the entire front and the it was pretty warm. Since then I notice that , intermittently, the entire face of the radio was unusually hot to the touch
Has anyone experienced the same problem? Everything seems to be working fine. stereo and cd player are O.K.

Yep mine is hot also, and the headlight switch will also get hot. Would guess this is normal.

From the title I thought you meant STOLEN.....

I never notice my radio anymore since installing the steering wheel controls...

I don't know what the deal is with that. My 98 & 00 Z24's all had areas on the HU that would get really hot

You probably forgot to buy option "Factory Radio Heat Shield"...I think it was a $600 option....

Actually, seems like a common problem with Chevy, my new Vette is terrible....

I think aftermarket HU's run cooler anyways...

What are the plans for the vette C-rod?
