Radio Head Unit Upgrade

[Chucklm]

Hi All!
I'm looking to uprade the head unit on my 2001 240 Sun Deck. I retains the Clarion XMA2 AM/FM Cassette player.
It has the remote on the cockpit instument cluster.
I'm looking for AM/FM with ipod intergration. Any suggestions? Thanks,
Chuck LM

Chuck,
I did alot of research last spring on this topic. I am installing the Clarion M309 myself this winter. I think it has all the options you may want. It has the Ipod usb input, rca inputs for any other things you may want to add, integrated cd player too. It runs about 170-180 online. There were others on this site that seemed partial to a sony model too. Good luck!

I upgraded my old Clarion to a Clarion M475. I know there are newer better head units out there now but I just wanted to caution you that when I was shopping I found a lot of contradicting information about whether the newer stereos would still work with the wired remote.

I was told that mine would no longer work but it does. I was pleasantly surprised and happy that I could still use it.
