for the budget buyer

I bought this because of the price and design. I installed in my '86 BMW and it blends in with the interior without looking all flashy. Installation was a snap, nothing complicated.

Reads MP3 cd's without hassle and load time was fairly quick between tracks. The back lighting looks good at night and visible during the day. Remote functions as it should navigation through tracks.

pros: Price, simple looks, MP3 compatibility, remote control included, detachable face & case.

cons: The outer casing material is made of very thin metal. When powering off the CD starts over again from the beginning.
