Car Stereo for Ford Taurus GL?

[LOA]

I bought a Ford Taurus GL '97 the other day, and am looking for a stereo that can be used in the Ford.
It's my first real car, so I'm not sure.

I'm willing to spend 100-200 dollars, and am wanting CD or MP3 player capabilities.

well first of all do you have a stock stereo? if you do your gonna be looking to spend at least 250.00 because of the dash kit and harness is gonna be at least 60-100 bucks for you. if you notice you'll need to replace your whole ac control, and the stereo wiring will need to be run from your trunk of the car into the front where the radio will be. check out the sony, pioneer, or alpine radios. pioneer 2000mp, sony gt330, alpine cde-9872. if you have a stock radio your dash kit for that car will be metra 99-5715LD
