[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8829781, member: 674149"] Does your current one not have presets (which you usually hold to set, and push to turn to). Bluetooth is pretty standard on anything new these days, (can't think of any reason to avoid it). If you wanted as cheap and basic as possible, honestly I think you have two options: 1. Figure out what factory stereo was in there. Depending on the vehicle you can probably get it for about $10-$20 from a junk yard or craigslist. 2. (and FOR WHAT YOU ARE WANTING), just go to walmart, and get a head unit for $30-$50. They have some of the most basic brands and models there are, (that aren't right away cheap Chinese junk). If that's all you want, you can find it there quick and easy. The only other problem would be wiring it in. If you have some basic audio/electrical skills you will need to wire it up, and match up the wires in the harness that goes from the head unit to the vehicle's harness. - Any teenager with a stereo can do that if you have one of those handy they can do it for $20 or a 6 pack. 3. If you don't have one of them, you could just buy a head unit from the same manufacturer you have now. Buy the cheapest head unit they sell, and the wiring harnesses SHOULD match up, where you can just use the current one, and just swap over the head unit and be done with it. [/QUOTE]
