If you want a new CD player unit, buy a $100 one, they don't have all
the "features" to match the LED windshield squirters, underbody neon,
etc. Most of them work quite fine, and I think have the same guts in
them as the $300 units. If they crap out you buy another one. I have
put 3 or 4 of these in various cars, including the TD, they work fine
and take maybe an hour or two to install (mostly finding spkr wires).
Check the Sunday paper for ads, sometimes you can even get them
cheaper. Then get some $50/set speakers, which will be lots better than
the originals. More than that price is overwhelmed by the sweet diesel
sound.

It's a head unit, with amp in the back. I'm wondering here if I
should spend the $$ to have it serviced via becker usa, or replace it?
Thoughts on this are welcome, a quick visit to crutchfields showed
most choices today require me to get better corrective lenses and
attempt to press wee buttons
and watch swirling graphics, somehow I'm not in their target
purchasing group.
