Of Course

There's a Mazda CD-MP3 player that replaced your CD player/changer.

So, you can have both a single disc CD and an MP3 player installed?

i havent gotten it yet, but i had one of these on my old car. It will play cds normally, and if you put in a data cd with mp3s it plays the mp3s and displays the info just like any other mp3 player.

and,

from page 9,

MP3 Player Trim Panel F151-79-BGX

gotta buy the trim panel separately (the black plastic faceplate).

To clarify, no you can't. The MP3 player replaces the CD player. It goes in the same place (space). But, you wouldn't need the CD player anymore cuz the MP3 plays CD's.

Nope, would not need the 6-Disc, but if the MP3 plays audio cd's as well, I'm mad I did not order it that way. So, I replace my stock single disc CD player with the MP3 player, and I can play audio cd's and mp3 cd's, correct?

Yes, that's correct.

Not to worry - buy both items from Trussville Mazda for less than the mark-up price (unless you swing a sweet kind of a deal).

PART NAME, PART NO., OUR PRICE

MP3 Player with Trim Panel, MP3 Player Kit, $267.60

Then install it yourself. It's one of the easiest do-it-yourself installs and there are threads here dedicated to showing how it's done.
