Factory Radios go pretty quick on Ebay, however I'd recommend keeping it
just in case. I had an older pioneer 1.5 DIN height model (from 98) that I
took out of my winter beater when I sold it. I put that in the truck and it
worked beautifully for 2 years until it died. Unfortunately I didn't have
the money to buy a new head unit, so I had to relegate myself back to the
stock tapedeck. If I had sold it, I would have been SOL.
Also, i've got an Alpine CDA-9811 (I'm pretty sure, it might be the 9813
though) that will play any audio file you put on a CD-R or CD-RW, and love
it. It's a very nice head unit that puts out plenty of power and has 4v
gold plated preouts.... Sadly, I don't have any pictures of it uploaded
though.
