MOST only matters if you have an amp or CD changer. A CDR-23 also had analog outputs for speakers
The big issue with a CDR-23 is the security,. It needs to be programed in the DME or it won't function. Older radios had a code that could be entered throughout he radio.

There is a Contential radio that looks like a factory radio and has modern functions like bluetooth.
Do a search and you should find more info

How good a quality is the Continental radio? Is installation pretty straighforward?
