Advise me (Audio question)
I have a:
2001
SLK 320
My CD changer does not work.
I could get one from Ebay easily.
or
I could get a new CD deck so I can have in in-dash cd changer complete with I-pod, sat/hd radio, ext... for around $200.
I would actually prefer the second option but I am worried about loosing my Mercedes radio and its performance.
What should I do.

Alpine - Apple® iPod™/Satellite Radio/HD-Radio-Ready CD Deck
Model: CDA-9883 | SKU: 8222568
$204.00
or if I feel like spending some bills:
Dual - MOSFET 60W x 4 CD/DVD/MP3 Deck w/Fully Motorized 7" Widescreen Touch-Screen LCD
Model: XDVD8180 | SKU: 7668945
$399.00
I don't think the Benz sterio is great but it doesn't look out of place and I have heard stories of alternative radios not working properly.

Do not get the Dual, they are Junk. I have had 3 friends that have had them and they broke and they don't sound all that good. I'd go with the Alpine. Alpine makes the Comand Units for Benz.
