I want to put in a new radio in my 1993 Ford econoline 250 xtra long van. I
want
an in dash CD /mp3 player with a cassette as well. the car radio guy tells
me I can only use a 1 DIN radio as a 2 DIN will not fit, and the only units
that do what i want are 2 DIN. The stuff behind the dashboard of this van is
very full without a lot of xtra space otherwise i have to get a cd changer
which i
HATE. No I do not want a new van. below is the configuration he is
recommending. any thoughts?
thanks

See http://tinyurl.com/4p5dt or http://tinyurl.com/67g69 for a 1 Din CD/Tape
combo. The only criteria they don't meet is MP3 capability.
