2001 Tribute radio
 

The 6 disc CD player of my radio just went south. Tiny little cog fell out. Of course I can’t find anyone to fix it. I actually paid $100 from a junker only to have that one to die a few weeks later.

My question: How good are those aftermarket radios I see around and is the installation the same as the original radio? Can an installation kit for a Ford be used?
