When did car CD players become popular?

I’m writing a book that takes place in the 90’s so I am checking for accuracy.

My 1998 Volvo has one, and I remember it being a fairly spiffy new item at the time.

My old 1994 Explorer didn’t have one, but my wife’s 1996 Civic did. So, I’m going to say 1995.

My 1998 Old had a cassette player. No CD.

@pdworkin, 1998 would be about right. My 1997 Honda had a cassette player.

My pimpin ‘97 minivan has one. I’d figure a year or 2 before then.
