Handing a car in as P/X with no head unit.
 

Guys, I'm leaving the (MG) building!

- I'm using my ZT as P/X against a new car.

- I have Sean's DD unit and want to sell it as it's worth a few quid.

- I put this cars fascia and OEM head unit on the ZT I had previously sold.


If I hand them the car with no head unit, are they likely to care/cancel/ask for more money from me?

NB. They haven't seen the car - their valuation is based on beating a neighbouring dealership.

Thanks all

Bad news I,m afraid if the dealer gave you a PX price with the DD unit in place he will expect the identical unit in place or will reduce the PX figure.........Would you agree a figure for a house only to move in and find the boiler or kitchen sink missing:D

Since they've not seen the car, I'd say just take it out. That said, you can get Harmony Radios from 75s for just £5, and you needn't even bother plugging it in, if you are PXing it.

Unless you've told them you have a fancy DD unit then if they haven't seen the car, they can't possibly 1) know about the DD unit or 2) have factored it into the PX price.

Throw in a replacement head unit that can be had for peanuts.

I will have a very nice single din Sony cd/mp3 head unit for sale in the next few days,it has usb/aux,cage,case for front,i can also supply a single din facia too,stick that in,sell the DD unit..........;)

Why not take the seats out as well ?
..and does it really need doors on ?
Get a second hand one and make it complete :}

Pop down the local scrappy and get one to replace the DD

If they haven't seen the car and you didn't say that there was a nice DoubleDin system in, I can't see that they would have anything to grump about.

Having said that, if it was me, I would probably go to a scrap yard and get a harmony unit and fit it just to fill the gap :D

When I bought my first 75, I px'ed on the forecourt, and the dealer actually said, to go and remove the head unit, wheel trims, mats and anything else I wanted out of my old car. As it made no difference, as it would only go to auction.

At the time it was a 12 year old orion. with an old sony tape deck!!!

But all depends what kind of dealer they are, and their intentions with your car.

Thanks for the replies all,

Right, would this one work with my wiring?

I only ask because I'm not sure if the facelifted models had different wiring?
