Now I need a tape deck.  I thought maybe one of the many

The PO  of my Transporter installed a radio/CD player which has no tape
deck.  I've unsuccessfully tried to buy a standalone tape deck (without
another radio) to plug into the CD/radio unit.  Finally I attached a Walkman
below the dash and made a 12v to 3volt DC converter as a power source.
Problem is that whereas a car tapedeck loads into a slot, the Walkman loads
thro a flap and so is much more difficult to load when driving.

Does anyone know of  a way out of my problem short of scrapping the CD/radio
and starting again?
