They are made exclusively for Mazda, not 100% sure on the brand. I have imported one before, nothing special IMO. They look outdated, much better options available for double dins.

Nothing special about them, cd single - option for a six stacker, option for a md player. Pulled mine out pretty much as soon as I got the car and went aftermarket.

Plus they are not a direct replacement. The clips on the back are different.

I think the ***** were reversed too since it's a RHD.

Another option is to use a late model OEM radio setup from several models. This is from a 626 and was an easy upgrade plus kept the factory look just updated. Another plus is there are Bose versions or non-Bose versions available depending on what your wiring is currently.

This looks really good. I'm looking into this. thanks for the info.

if there's a clear way to get the spirit-r installed, I would go for it in no time.

aftermarket is great but my choice is still after the factory... :-D

edit:

wait I don't want tape though. the spirit-r system doesn't have one. it looks better that way.

You can find OEM units without the tape. Even some 6cd versions.
