IMO the "old" one matches the Chevrolet/Pontiac radio's better than the New York model, IMO, no chrome outer strip. The Buick/Olds had that outline I believe, along with a glossy finish. The knobs are more correct though, wonder if those can be interchanged or purchased separately. Curious what other changes were made, looks like the faux tape insert area must have something behind it.

Here's the details.

The RetroSound New York is a direct-fit replacement radio for mid-1970s-2000s Mopar, Ford, and GM vehicles that came equipped with a standard 1.5 DIN factory radio. The New York is designed to look like the original radio found in many of GM’s G-Body vehicles. The very popular Buick Grand National and Chevy Monte Carlo are among these vehicles. Although many performance upgrades are available for the G-Body market, the interior and audio categories have been overlooked.

The New York looks and fits like the original factory radio but boasts the most modern technological features. Bluetooth connectivity allows you to connect almost any smartphone for hands-free calling and wireless music streaming. An Apple Made iPod/iPhone interface is also built-in. The unit is also SiriusXM ready. The display and backlit buttons are completely customizable to any color. If you have a custom gauge cluster you can set the display color on the New York to match and really tie your interior lighting together.

They even make an adapter harness to fit it into a GBody harness
