Hey guys,
Some of you know, some don't, but I've now went through 3 factory OEM stereo units. The third replacement just failed. CD ERROR crap. So at $100 a pop, I'm no longer paying for what I know will continue to fail. Even despite the fact that I prefer the OEM look. So anyhow I've come across this...

It's very affordable and seems to have everything I would need. Unfortunately it's only capable of holding one disc at a time, but I could live with that. My main questions and concerns would be compatibility. Would I be able to take advantage of the Aux input that this unit offers? Because my current factory unit does not have an Aux input.
Also, I'm looking for advice on a clean installation. What kind of surround do I get? Or is that all dependant on the size of the unit being installed?
I suppose I could make this real simple by asking, will this unit work in my car? (I assume I'll lose steering wheel audio controls, but I'm not paying out the ass for an adapter and I'm also not purchasing more OEM units so oh well). And if it won't work, does anyone have advice on a $200 budget?
Thank you as always.
