Default Flash/Thumb Drive question

I have read a lot on this forum about C5 OEM radio vs whatever. ALL my music is on flash/thumb drives, not a phone, not an apple product etc. My two other cars have ports & play my music. My 01 Vert has OEM with single CD player only (stock) Any simple option for adding something I can plug my flash drives into or not. Thanks, Dave

I have a 2011 GS that did not come with a USB port either ... so, I was never was able to listen to music on a thumb drive.

I did some checking and was unable to find anything I could buy separately that would allow the use of a USB.

I just bit the bullet and purchased a 2-DIN Kenwood head unit that came with 2 USB ports .... The one I purchased even has built-in Garmin navigation ... problem solved !

Very nice! I would do the same thing if I did not have to go through the whole "change the bezel thing" since the OEM slot is not big enough for a Double Din. So I will just wait and see how satisfied I am with the way it is. Thanks
