[QUOTE="winkychevelle, post: 8516312, member: 611804"] It likely is the factory head unit failing. And yes typically head units are universal but they have two common sizes: single din and double din Most cars will accept a single din replacement radio with a simple dash kit, wiring harness, and possibly an antenna adapter. Most newer cars can accept the larger double din radios. In your particular case I would suggest ordering from Crutchfield.com since they have decent prices a good reputation and their techs are usually very good at answering questions. Plus if you order from Crutchfield they send you instructions on your specific car and often include the wiring and dash kits for free or at least discounted. It's a beginners one stop shop and I can't recommend them enough. That said amps, speakers, wires, subs can be found cheaper elsewhere on line often better product can be found for the money but fore a simple radio I always order from Crutchfield. [/QUOTE]
