For the most part Mazda stereos will fit in our cars, there are some odd ones like the Bose ones that I don't think will fit. Best thing to do is if you are looking on e-bay make sure they show a picture of the back of the stereo and that it has plug ins for the two plugs on the MX-3s wiring harness.

Could someone please post a pic of the mazda type cd player that will fit in the MX-3? Most e-bay sellers aren't that great about descriptions and pictures. Does this one look right?

I recently upgraded from a kenwood mp-919 to a CQ-DFX983U, panasonics top of the line model, and even though the controls are much more lamen and less confusing than kenwoods, i get much much better sound quality, harder bass and amazing graphics...
