Need help with car audio

[cchen]

I have a 1990 toyota camry and I wanna add in a cd player, either an in-dash or a headset with cd changer. Does anyone know a place online that I can get one really cheap? And how hard is this to install yourself? I'm low on cash... but sitting in the car listening to the same songs over and over again is reallyu boring....so I really wanna get a car player.

though if you get it from Crutchfield, they'll include detailed instruction on installing it.

Crutchfield is a really good place. They have great customer service too. I recently bought the JVC KD-SH99 mp3/cd receiver and its great.

Go to pricegrabber.com. You will probably find a CD receiver or Changer addon to fit your needs. Installation should be simple as well, just make sure you get the wire adapter for your car that will fit the unit you buy (if you buy a new head unit). If you just get an addon changer, you can simply mount it in the trunk (or wherever you want) and the music will be transmitted through radio signals, so you can use your existing head unit.

There are a lot of options, so it's up to you how you want to set it up.

I'd recommend getting a Pioneer or Alpine deck. I don't think you're gonna be running subs and amps in your Camry, so I'd say that you should probably spend around 150-175 for a decent deck unless you can find a real good deal somewhere. As for installing it, that shouldn't be much of a problem. I just installed my Pioneer deck and front speakers the other day and didn't have a problem at all (well...I admit I blew a couple fuses, but that wasn't a problem to fix ). That was my first time ever doing it too. Just make sure to read the directions while doing it. Also, don't forget to use electric tape to tape up where you connect the wires. If you need any more help, just let me know.

You could go to crutchfield but also try Autotoys
Their stuff I find is usually cheaper than other places. Plus they have a bunch of other sh!t.
