Well, got the CD player in and it's GREAT!  Had to get my brother's
expertise to help me.
Thanks for everyone's advise!
For $55 you can have an original excellent condition, uncoded,auto
reverse tape playing stereo that was in my Carat. There's a little
antenna cable adapter with it too. It was hooked up with the
connectors in the beck, the brown held the speaker's and the lack
held the power wires.   Not sure on how many programmable stations on
it, I only had 3 programmed. It was my favorite button: Repeat!
Repeats the previous tune or will go to the beginning if it's in the
middle of one. Everything works fine on it. Um..it should be fine for
whoever might need one.
