Replacing CD Player, Keeping other OEM systems

The OEM CD player in my 2001 Silhouette is having spot-stoppage problems. It isn't skipping, but pausing.

My vehicle has a full OEM audio-video system, plus On Star. If I replace the CD player with a 3rd party system, I wouldn't want to lose the other capabilities. Has anyone found a way to do this with any system?

just a note for the searching record:

my 2001 silhouette CD player overheats after extended play on
a highway drive.

One possibility is to use a separate MP3 player connected to a FM transmitter. Then you can be your own "radio station" and play whatever music you like! You keep your OEM audio system but only lisening on "radio".

Isn't integration wonderful?

I don't beleive there is an adapter so that you can use an aftermarket radio with your On Star. You might give a place like Crutchfield or a local car audio speciality shop a call to see if there are options out there.
