I know to each his own, but why would you want an older, inferior CD player in your car when you can get a new one with a face plate to make it fit right? If you want to keep it stock, keep the original radio in, but if you want a CD player, get the latest. My Kenwood (see sig below) was around $400 when new in 1998, and that was an awesome radio, but even that can't compare to the very latest being offered now. I want .mp3 playback in mine. Holds 120 or so songs on a single CD.
