    Hello. Just recently got an 05 Prius, unfortunately I got ripped on the CD Player. Won't load any disks. Need a new one. Found this on craigslist: CD PLAYER 6 DISK FOR CAR OR TRUCK

    On EBay, it shows as the 04-09 Corolla player, even though she got it out of her 08 Prius. So my question is; will it fit? My new Prius has the JBL CD player installed right now (this):

    And are there any aftermarket stereo's/CD players with bluetooth for sub-$75 with decent reviews? Would be nice to have hands-free calling. Thanks for any help!

    that isn't a factory prius unit, no matter what she says. and if you have jbl, you either need the oe jbl head unit, or you will have to rewire. the power amp under the rf seat is part of the jbl unit and won't work w/ any other head unit.
    as far as <$75 unit w/ bluetooth? unlikely to find anything for that price that doesn't sound terrible.

    I've looked for sub-$75 stereos for my Chrysler that had Bluetooth or iPod integration. Found nothing worth the money. They either played music badly or lacked quality in their features. If you want something good, you WILL need to pay a lot for it. I wouldn't buy a used electronic on eBay or Craigslist anyway, go to Best Buy's car audio station at the least.
