Radio / CD ? MP3 player advice?

[Chris Wilson]

I am looking for a basic radio / CD / MP3 player for the new truck, the one in it's *uggered. Saw these two units on the dreaded Ebay, would they be considered a reasonable price? Will they go in the same cage and use the same connector "thing" at the back of the cage as the circa 1996 Grundig CD / Radio that's in it now?

 

Could do with MP3 play ability from home recoreded CD's, and traffic new priority over radio / CD playment, I think both these do this?

 

Thanks.

The Sony's an OK unit and that's a very good price, can only find it for £50 outside of eBay. Guys at work buy off Argos clearance quite a bit so it's a good seller.

 

Can't say I've tried Blaupunkt myself.

 

Cage is fine, should get ISO connectors for what you want with it.

OK, thanks, have bought the Sony, can use it in the Matiz if I don't like it much, that needs something to drown the engine noise and the fascia's missing from the unit in it!
