Facelift? If so, double din, so you're looking at the CDR2005 signle cd player, or CDR2006 cassette player with 4 disc multichanger.  Neither sound that great, but do the job.

If you have a very late prefacelift, single din, so CDR500, CCR600 with external multichanger, or ccrt700 if thats what your car is wired as.


If its ex-plod, the wiring may be severely buggered with.


Obviously, you can also go for non standard fit items.

Most quality brands have steering wheel adapters for their brands (though often not their budget ranges)
