One can purchase a Sony Xplod online at the Sony store. Amazon also sells this product. You can also bid on one at Ebay. If you do not wish to buy online Walmart and Best Buy also sell Sony products.
The Sony Xplod CDX757 has anti skip technology so you shouldnt have any skips under normal driving conditions.
The simplified directions can be found on Crutchfield's website. If the wiring in your car doesn't connect right you can find harnesses on Amazon.com or at Circut City and you can always take them to a shop to be installed but it'll cost you. You can call Crutchfield for help too at the number on their site. If you wonder why I mention them so much you should know that Xplod speakers are made by Sony and Crutchfield's collaboration.

The Sony CDX-GT730UI doesn't have direct support for the iPod, but it can be connected easily via a mini-to-mini cable.
