LOC's are a popular thing in the Genesis groups because not many owners want to take out the factory deck and lose their steering wheel controls. I've had my LOC for 6 years and it's still fine. Who has had one for a long time and still enjoys it?

 

No issues with mine. Going on 5 years and I have one the cheapo $15 ones.

 

I dont have a converter but I do have a Rockford Fosgate in my other car that's old as dirt and using high line outputs and the thing refuses to die.

 

This. Mine isnt as old as yours but it's an off brand LOC from Walmart and it works fine.
