Today I installed a Pioneer that I got for $99 from Crutchfield, and it included the radio removal tools and wiring adaptors for free. My CDR 220 had developed a symptom where the radio function worked only intermittently. Pricing a replacement CDR 220 on eBay showed that getting a decent one was going to cost around $300, so it was a no-brainer to get a new stereo.
The install was actually pretty easy, although the wiring instructions that came with the adaptors had the 12v switched and constant supply wires reversed.
The good news is that the sound is so much better than the Becker! I would agree that the new stereo certainly doesn't look as good as the original Becker, but at least I could set the colors to a matching orange. Overall, I'm very pleased.
I didn't realize how much I listened to the radio until it died!
