Sorry, didn't get that it was MP3 CDs, only thought it was audio CDs 
(completely different.)  If the car won't play an MP3 CD, it won't play 
an MP3 CD, doesn't matter whether it's CD-R or CD-RW.

But I bet it will play CD-Rs.  They are cheap, but:  Beg, buy, borrow, 
or steal a few from someone you know, and try it.  Won't hurt the 
player, they just won't play.  Or will.  In which case, Hoo-ray!
