I just bought a new car and it came with an after market Sony Xplode head unit and some subs, not the best in the world but they will do for now. My head unit will play the radio or play a CD that I put in, but that's it. I cannot turn it off, change the volume, change the song, etc. So essentially the "face plate" doesn't work but the internal stuff does work.

I don't know much about this kind of stuff so I was wondering if you could buy replacement "face plates" (not sure of the correct terminology)? Or maybe there is an easy fix to this, such as a loose wire or something. Thanks, and I appreciate the patience.

There are a couple of options. You can use a marine bt unit. They come in the size of a hockey puck and can mount anywhere. This is the marine unit.

There are bluetooth amplifiers. You can just use your phone or an I Pod as the music source and not touch the radio.
