I replaced mine with an Alpine, which sounds fine but has annoyingly small buttons . Just check what level of iphone control you're getting - mine just plays the currently selected album - it will let you fwd and rew through tracks, but you have to disconnect the iphone to choose another album. I think some units will give you more iphone functionality, at higher cost. Actually I thought the original Clarion sounded perfectly ok too until it died...

Then ebay would be your best bet, if you are willing to install a replacement CD changer in the boot. Here's a good example. The thing is for that price you could get a modern CD headunit with the option of ipod / USB connectivity. The modern unit would undoubtedly have better sound quality too.

i have CD player / normal fm radio with iPod connection on the side. ken wood radio i got from halfords for about £60 + a windscreen mounted stick on arial
this works fine and the supplied connection lead made it simple plug and play until i decided to neaten all the wiring behind the dash.

Just to add. Nothing will connect to the Coupes Clarion CD changer except very old Clarion Units. You can buy a converter to let it talk to the newer Clarion head units but that costs £120, which is more than a new cd changer unit I briefly looked at doing the same thing and gave up an bought a hybrid* Pure head unit. *DAB/FM+CD+Bluetooth+MP3.
