I want one.

How much am I looking at for a decent one considering my speakers aren't brilliant and are they difficult to fit?

Buy a Corsa SXI....  CD player as a standard  Cheesy   And you get to look like a chav as a free optional extra.

The CD player itself is about 80-odd quid for a decentish one - the Clio speakers in my mum's old car - same version as yours - were doable, but it depends what you want to listen to and how chavvy (I mean how good speakers) you'd like....?

I don't really want to buy new speakers as well, not too fussed about sound quality so long as it's listenable and the bass doesn't sound terrible.

Then you're sorte d- Halford's is you're port of call, should be under 100.  My dad managed to blag a Sony player for about 85 - and he only listens to Meatloaf and Deseridta (or summat - Irish Folk Song band).   :|

It must be easy as fuck as my dad is about as mechanical as me on coke....   But if you're really stuck I'm sure you've got a mate who can do it easily, or someone on here can do it......

the frogs are weird, instead of having an industry standard attachment (which would make sense) theres a few different types. which is very silly.

I've just realised they sell converters so that you can plug your mp3 player into a cassette player.  Sorted :advercool:  :\/

I got mine from Argos  Cool

Kenwood, very easy and pretty decent for £99

That one came with free fitting- otherwise you're looking at about 40-50 quid fitting

Anyone who can't fit a CD player in their car should probably stick their tongue in the mains.
