    Radio is not any better here. Not driving to/from work has its perks, i suppose

    Too true. Though I have been listening to ABC Classic of a morning for some bizarre reason lately. Emma somebody or other has a weirdly fascinating voice.

    Need a car that can take the ipod mate. Tried the FM tuners but the reception is dodgy to say the least. Don't like driving with the earphones in.

    This. Pretty cheap too. Can probably pick one up and have it installed for <$100.

    Cheers guys - it's an old car and doesn't have an AUX button either. Replacing the CD unit would leave a massive gap in the dash because its not really a standard size.

    Appreciate the suggestions though.

    It's worth going in and asking next time you're in or around a JB or similar. They often have a list of models somewhere that various units are compatible with. My car (2000 model) had a CD/CassetteTape/Pretty big interface and they took it out, put the new one in. I had to purchase a little pocket. which fits snuggly over the top in the gap where the rest of my audio used to be. So there are possible ways to fill the gaps etc. Worth posing the question.

    A stereo that is double in height to the standard is called a "Double DIN". Most subie's (01 liberty for example) require a double din stereo. Ask about them at any car audio joint and they'll know what youre on about.

    Not really related, but thought this would be an appropriate vent space.
    How on Earth are G-shock watches so expensive?

    Looks as ugly as all hell, and have that, "my first watch" feel about it. Who would pay $750 for that! I'd sooner get 2-3 Nixon watches.

    Big fan of the Belkin tuner. A bit of You Am I on the way to and from the zoo each day soothes the soul.
