That is unless the old player is stuck hard or something. Check with your local carstereodealer if they have adapters (if needed), if they don't, buy an ISO plug, chop of the old plug in the car, and wire the ISO up yourself. Should be an easy task, 3 wires for constant power, ignition power and ground, and 4 or 8 wires for speakers. Assuming that you use only 2 or 4 speakers, and don't have an amplifier, handsfree phone or power antenna, this should be about it. Just don't do like my more economically short-sighted friends who wanted to save the $5 for a ISO-plug for the car, and chop of the ISO plug on the player and wire it directly to the cars wiring harness. As for ugly players, they usually come in two categories: Las Vegas Neon Ugly for the Fag... eh, Fast and Furious crowd, and Plain Black Ugly, for senior citizens. Finding a good-looking player is a matter of taste, but shouldn't be too hard if you just look for a while. -- Kristian
