Product Description
The Custom Autosound USA-630 is a great choice for quality audio in a classic Pontiac. It is packed with features, from an RDS tuner to USB and iPod control.
Fit and Ordering
This listing is the classic Pontiac version of the USA-630. Pontiac dashes vary by model and year, so confirm fit for your car before ordering. Call us at 574-226-6676 to confirm fit for your year.
When you order, the form asks for:
- Factory Air (Yes or No)
- Voltage (12 volt or 6 volt)
- Ground (Negative or Positive)
The Radio in Brief
With 300 watts peak, an RDS display and a full set of tone controls, the USA-630 is the step up from the USA-230. It has the same classic styling, plus USB, iPod control and CD changer control for owners who want more ways to play music.
Classic Look, Modern Function
An original radio may look great, but it rarely works well today and cannot play your own music. A modern radio made for the dash gives you dependable reception, presets and inputs for your devices without changing the period appearance of the interior.
Key Features
- 16 presets (12 FM and 4 AM) and a USA/Euro tuner
- 4-channel RCA pre-outs, power antenna lead and an always-on digital clock
- AM/FM stereo with an RDS tuner that shows artist, song and station
- 300 watts peak power
- USB port for WMA/MP3 files on a flash drive
- iPod dock with control buttons
- 2-channel RCA auxiliary input
- Direct control of an optional CD changer
- Negative LCD (white characters on black) with alphanumeric text
- Loudness, digital EQ, separate bass and treble, 4-way fader and left/right balance
Options on This Page
- CD/Bluetooth: a single slave CD player that the radio controls, or a Bluetooth adapter (Custom Autosound's BluKit) for music streaming and hands-free calls
- Front dual voice coil speaker, which plays both stereo channels through a single dash speaker
- Rear 6x9 speaker pair, Custom Autosound or upgraded Pioneer
- Kick panels with speakers, without speakers or with a Pioneer upgrade
- Hideaway antenna
Tuner and Inputs
The RDS tuner shows songs, artists and stations, and the USA/Euro tuner adds flexibility. The 2-channel auxiliary input and USB port cover portable devices.
Warranty
Custom Autosound radios sold by Vintage Car Radio carry a 2-year warranty.
Installation Notes
Custom Autosound radios run on 12-volt negative ground. The Voltage and Ground menus tell us what your car has. For 6-volt negative ground systems Custom Autosound makes the NGVB-HC voltage booster, and for positive ground systems it makes the PGPI-HC power inverter. Contact us if you are not sure which your car needs.
Take your time behind the dash: label the old wires, replace anything brittle, fuse the power lead and ground the radio to clean metal. If you are not comfortable with automotive wiring, have an auto radio specialist install it. Vintage Car Radio sells the radio and accessories but does not offer installation.

| Function | Wire color |
|---|---|
| Ignition / ACC +12V | Red |

Ignition and power-antenna leads are commonly fused at 1A on the harness—confirm against the guide that ships with your radio.

USA-630 extras
USB and iPod/dock leads share a cable near the antenna jack on many units. RCA jacks on top are typically labeled AUX IN, REAR, and FRONT (line out). Bluetooth requires the optional BluKit unless your package already includes it.
Suggested order for a classic Pontiac
- Disconnect the vehicle battery before any wiring.
- Connect ground first, then constant (yellow) and ignition (red).
- Connect the antenna plug and the blue power-antenna lead if your car has a power antenna.
- Wire all four speakers, matching polarity.
- If using an amplifier, run RCA cables from the front/rear (and sub on USA-740/USA-850) pre-outs.
- Reconnect the battery and test radio, speakers, and charging system voltage.
Tech tips for classic Pontiac
- This radio is sold for the factory Pontiac opening used in classic models—do not cut a modern DIN rectangle if you want a stock look.
- A poor ground is the most common cause of whine or weak audio; scrape paint at the ground point and use a star washer.
- If AM reception is weak, check the antenna mast, cable continuity, and that the antenna plug is fully seated.
- Vintage Car Radio does not install radios. If you are not comfortable with 12V wiring, use a qualified installer.
