Hi there. I bought a used '92 Bonneville SSEi Supercharged several weeks ago. Everything about the car was perfect, except for the fact that the CD Player no longer worked. My question is about getting a new one. I noticed, looking through electronics stores, that the new-style players are much smaller than the one found in my car. Is there some sort of kit that would allow me to install a new-style player? If so, how much would the adaption kit alone be? Also, if I were to get a new player, is there any way to allow the steering-wheel buttons to function with it, or will they only work on a stcok player? Please excuse the lack of knowledge in this area. I am no good with car audio or video, just computers. Thanks for any help you can provide.

If the new unit has a wireless remote you can make the steering wheel controls work again.

Thank you all for your responses, I will definately check-out the Pioneer DEH-P47DH CD Player. And to John Deer Boy, thanks for the warning about aftermarket players. It'* greatly appreciated. Thanks again all.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions and tips. I just decided to go with a conversion kit, and an after-market player with a remote, so I can make the steering-wheel controls work with it. The good thing, is it will all be professionally installed free of charge by 'Ultimate Electronics'. Thanks again everyone.
