I want to play my mp3's but I don't think I can replace my stock CD stereo. Can anyone suggest what's a good option?

well, with an MP3 player, you can get an am/fm transmitter and plug it into the cigarette lighter. And you can put all of your CD's on your MP3 player. And do it like that. That's my .02 cents.
blue is right...i dont' know if the newer cars even have cassette players anymore,


you can do what blue said or the casette adapeter...i'm thinking more the fm transmitter is what you want more though
Of course you can replace it! All you need is a dash kit, wiring harness and a CD Player with AUX Inputs! You can accomplish all this for under $250.

If you have an iPod you can check out this DIY on the iPod2Car. You can keep your factory radio with this module.

You can get an adapter from circuit city for under $60, it plug on the back of the stock cd. I got one on my tacoma and it works fine. the only thin is that the radio volume is lower with the adapter. Hope it help.

I think I saw a posting for the USA Spec device. I'll look into this. I'm sure I'll have questions. Thanks.
MP3ME, its the same adapter that CC have. I order mine on line and pick it up at the store close to my home.Very easy to install, there is a link on the DIY forum for the instalation. It took me 45min. to do it.
Check out my post for the USA-Spec install in the DIY articles.

I installed a Pioneer system that has aux inputs for MP3 and XM. Very easy to install.
How much is that Pioneer system, Rotor?
