Has anyone replaced the stock radio? if so what did you replace it with and how did it work out? I'm looking for a new head unit that plays cds and is bluetooth.

Tons of people have. I'd bet Ive personally done north of 100 of them between MCs and Impalas back when I was working in car audio.

TBH your criteria selection is pretty broad.

Id suggest going on a website like Crutchfield, plugging in your car info, and itll give you the list of options that fit along with the adapting kits for the wiring and dash. From there you can filter for CDs and Bluetooth to narrow the list down a bit and see what other features are important to you (touch screen, nav, etc) to narrow things down further.

Many years ago, I swapped my CD radio for a GM MP3/CD Radio 10348717. This was offered in Cavaliers and Venture Vans.
To be honest, you may want to hope on Amazon and check into the devices that plug into your cigarette lighter/power port and handle bluetooth and broadcast over FM. The hands free calling is kinda rough (I found many where you can hear the the person fine, but the person on the other end has issues hearing you). But if you wanted it for music, it works great!
