Welcome to the forums...Just the one thread will do, though!

The answer to that question depends on what head-unit it is, what adapters it has, and what adapters you need to fit the wiring loom on the current HU. You would need to extract the current HU and see if it has any spare connectors (you'd be looking for a 5+7 pin connector) that you can hook the additional HU up to. You would then also need to splice into the power system for the current HU to give it power - but make sure you hijack power from a lead that is controlled by ignition so it doesn't flatten your Battery.

An easy, and relatively cheap option, would be to grab a half decent single-din (or double din if you can stomach the additional cost) headunit - then you can have stuff like mp3/usb/bluetooth (CD too with some, and with most double din).
