Phatboxes are really cheap right now, if you're >97 and have a Concert or Symphony head unit.

Default I have seen mass piles of phatboxes being installed regularly at my friendly VW dealership.

I cant remember if they told me that they were either going to become standard in future vehicles or they are going out of style like disco and they are just trying to get rid of them to make way for something better.
Either way, they should be a cheap upgrade to find.

Default No, I said >97, i.e. 98 and up.

97s have Delta head units, use a different CD changer, and isn't compatible with Phatbox, to my knowledge.

Default That latter, but he's out of luck.

The iPod pretty much kicked the Phatbox in the teeth.
