Cheap car SD/USB/radios

Some scrote just nicked my car radio - a several-years-old Aggros £25
special-offer job. Wish them luck getting anything for it but at least
they didn't smash a window to get in: I found the car unlocked and the
battery flat. Puzzled how they got in. I don't know if the motor
(Daewoo Tacuma) would unlock if it sensed the battery getting low? I
didn't seem to have left the lights on or anything. Though it had
been standing unused for probably a couple or more weeks, so maybe
it's losing capacity. And maybe opportunistic scrote just found it
unlocked and helped themself.
Incidentally while prodding around to find why there was no power I
noticed hanging down beneath the dash, over the footwell, an unplugged
sort of code plug - plastic cap with 2 contacts inside with a resistor
soldered between them. Wonder what that does?
Anyway it's a new radio I'm after, but there don't seem to be any £25
ones anywhere I've looked - seem to start at £50. Any clues? Just
want FM radio, SD and/or USB play (preferably both) and a line-in
would be nice. Sort of thing one sees at independents occasionally
(I'm in Reading).
