As my OEM Clarion is on the fritz with some sort of electrical problem (doesn't ask for code when reinserted, usually if it does play i have no control over the volume, bass, treble, etc button, sometimes "code beep" occurs while radio is playing and then fixes or creates a problem, volume indicator (orange lights) illuminate a few lights on the left but also a few random lights on the right of the indicator).

Anyways, i'm not an audiophile and will probably upgrade the system to a basic radio/CD. I'd like to spend as little as possible, but also want to maintain the look of the cabin... as i haven't shopped for radios for some time, i'm amazed at how ugly most of them are!

Can you look at this system and tell me if i'd just be wasting my money, or if there's something in the low end that you recommend:

Jensen CD3010X http://www.crutchfield.com/cgi-bin/S-a1cpNw0p61A/ProdView.asp?s=0&c=3&g=300&I=110CD3010X
(i've seen it as low as $100)

They also had a Jensen Intellicar IC8010 on their site for $150 but i don't see it anymore, i was thinking of going for this one (if available) because it has a detachable face, but i'm "out of the loop" and don't know if radios even get stolen anymore (or if they just take the whole car!!). I don't crank my music anymore, guess i'm getting old, and the OEM unit had enough power for me. I REALLY enjoy listening to music but I also still have the OEM speakers, and have no intention of replacing them right now, so that should give you an idea of what's important to me (ie- i don't need to hear every high and low, but i don't like silence in the car either).

Thanks for any recommendations/advice.
