Looking for recommendations on a new in-dash CD player head for my 300TE.

The factory head w/ cassette is $900!!

Any ideas for me?

Additionally, I have been told at the audio shop that an aftermarket head will not work with stock amplifiers.

I'd like to self-install w/ help from Crutchfield, but am nervous about the amp/crossover, etc. issues.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
