Although I got this Unit back in the summer, only now have I had a close look at it and offered it up to the central aperture in my daily driver ZT-T.

I had planned to butcher the DD Fascia Aperture in the pool of spares ZT but as the 75/ZT [ MG 7? ] item comes ready to fit, posted for only £14.34p not worth the trouble. Is that the case... ready to fit?

One other minor issue. The Aerial Cable is not a straight fit as the ANT location is female on the back of the unit as is the female connection on the car's aerial cable. I could not find a suitable adaptor in my box of useful connectors so I will need to obtain one.

Without the aerial connection there was zero radio reception but the CD worked very well. I had Flock of Seagulls bursting out that superb Guitar stuff soon after inserting the disc. So that works just fine as do the connectors to the car's speakers.

Any pointers for a suitable male to female aerial adaptor would be appreciated from those been there, got one will be appreciated.

I had planned to fit it ages ago but, went on the back burner. What spurred me into action today. My CD-80 lost it's visual display ( are the internal bulbs accessible and replacable if that's what it is. Also tape cassettes no longer accepted. :doh:

Shall look forward to fitting this gizmo and having it working.
