Default What shall I upgrade my Harmony unit with?

Ive got a 2000 Rover 75 basic model (Classic SE I think), with the built in basic audio unit which I believe is called HARMONY.
To be honest I quite like the look of it as its larger and integrated like modern cars (as apposed to a single din unit that old cars have) However, other than play radio (not overly well either) my only option to play music is with cassette.

I would ideally like to be able to play music from my phone, I don't really need bluetooth - I am happy to plug it in via AUX or whatever. I do, as said above, like the OE look. I dont wan't a cheap tacky single DIN with flashing blue lights from Halfords like I used to put in my Saxo and Rover 214

I also dont want to spend £300 on the touch screen units, as nice as they are. I want to keep costs down.
What are my options?

If you want to play MP3 files on the unit (as you asked in the sticky) you might want to try this:

Tune in on the frequency of the device and you can enjoy MP3 files with reasonable quality. I have been using it for a short time in one of my cars and was not disappointed.


All you need is a cigarette lighter in the cubby box and you'll be set



You can probably get these on FleeBay as well.

You could try one of these

I used one before I upgraded the unit

Cheep enough to try
