What to get and how much?
My 75 currently has the orignal harmony head unit installed. I was thinking of upgrading this as the first major mod since getting it, and was getting all excited about dvd players etc, how much do these things cost and a rough price on fitting? I dont have a clue and i dont know how easy it is to change it to a more modern head unit
DO i go for one of these fancy sat nav dvd thingys or just a dvd thingy and does it cost much more for these headrest monitors etc?? I look forward to the ICE experts advice! |

I just had a alpine double din fitted, admittedly not the cheapest as i had all the speakers replaced, bluetooth , dynamat etc.
Blows, i say , blows the old lowline away!!!!!!!! The guys where i get all my stuff from ( BCSS COULSDON) said if you had the stereo yourself a single din was £75 just to fit. Unfortunately the bug, due to the sound quality, has well bit me on the bum and am now looking at subs and amps! I am 41 years old and not a child but when you hear how good it could be, your hooked! And if you want a cheap alpine freeview tuner...well...i'm your man! Last edited by philb37; 28th March 2012 at 17:21.. |

Radioguy, I didn't see in your FAQ whether you can view and browse through the iPod playlists on the screen?
