    Swapping head units?

    Good evening, Please excuse my complete and utter lack of knowledge - I'm just beginning to learn about fiddling with LRs... My parents have a S1 Safari Disco, and want to replace the broken head unit - preferably with a tape deck model compatible with the existing underseat Philips CD...
