when replacing the bose cd/tape head unit with a aftermarket cd player; if and how does it affect the bose speakers system?, will i need to replace the speakers also?

A quick answer is no, you don't have to replace the speakers. All you need is a bose interface device, sold at Crutchfield, Circuit City, etc. I got mine at Crutchfield, and it was $50. It is made by Scosche.

Depending on the year of your Max, installing a new CD Player can be a PITB. I have some recent pics on my website, displaying my recent install of an Aiwa CDC-MP3 CD/MP3 player. See them here:
