Default is there a radio delete kit panel for a c4?

This may sound dumb, but I am thinking about pulling out all my radio stuff.

I like how ford had a radio delete kit as a sports package, anyone have any ideas??

thanks

Grab a piece of plastic from a local plastic shop. Cut to fit. Spray paint 'satin black'

Did you ever make your radio delete? I am thinking about pulling my aftermarket radio. I cannot hear anything with the road noise (convertible).

Just curious why you would want to delete the radio? Is it to save weight?

There are a few reasons. I put a aftermarket GPS unit in many years ago and the light emitted from the unit takes away from the orange glow of the dash. Also, I have a convertible so I cannot hear the radio unless it is really load.

I plan to put a scosche cell phone car mount on the delete plate. If I want to hook up the phone to the speakers, I can get an amp behind the plate to either hook up via audio cable or blue-tooth.

I just noticed people responded to the thread.

I bought abs plastic from ebay, and I still have not removed it.

The car sat for years after this thread and now the car is way louder than the radio can play.

I will say that I know there was a plate out there before I posted this thread in'09 but I could not see anyone making them anymore.
