(T) Blue & Me + New Head Unit?

Hey, me again...

Just wondered if anyone knows if Blue and me on a 1.9 Sporting will still work if I put a new head unit in?

Also does anyone know if there's room for a 2 deck head unit, (Don't know myself yet as i've not taken the facia plate off yet.

Any advice is appreciated.

Tom

1. No

2. Dont think so, a standard DIN fits with about 10mm spare top and bottom, not enough for another size DIN unit.

wow thanks for the quick reply.

Damn coz I really like the functionality of blue and me on the steering wheel, but can't get over how good this would look (if it would fit) http://www.caraudiocentre.co.uk/prod...?product=21763

Cheers

for that price you could easily get a kenwood/pioneer dvd flip out head unit. 2nd hand of course

but for that money it will be mint

and then you have the option of extra screens in the car aswell. (headrests. bootbuild) etc.

not a bad idea, i was thinking of spending a little more and getting a unit with all the functions of blue and me built into it e.g. http://www.caraudiocentre.co.uk/prod...?product=22784 (Ignore the price I know someone who will sell it at cost price)

I want to change as a want a good sound system in the car, sub included.

i have an alpine headunit at the moment with i pod compatibility, which is the main reason for buying the headunit and the better quality sound, i have installed a set of components up the front as well which sound crisp, i have recently bought an amp and sub as well which sounds very good in the gp, the bass fills up the car but yet doesn't drown out the sound from the components.

im just wondering, next on my list is a headunit.

do we need to get an iso adapter like this?

or can i just take it to halfords with my fascia adapter and £40 and they will do it for me??

just read it, service applies to prodcuts purchased in halfords only

no iso lead was needed when my headunit was fitted so i am guessing you do not need one as my headunit works perfectly. what headunit you thinking of getting?

getting this.




but im gonna get the harness adapter just in case, its only a tenner.

^^ That Sony head unit looks lovely! I hate the nasty tacky HUs with the chavvy lights and chrome, but that one looks nice!

im thinking bout buying a new headunit for the gp, with dvd player, bluetooth and everything else but i was just wonder is the gp a double-DIN dash? also if i do get a new headunit will i be able to use the buttons on the steering wheel for it?

if you're lucky enough to find one with the right connectors then yes, but i think that is very unlikely. dont know if any wiring firms are producing anything for the GP yet. and when they do they will be pretty expensive.

HTH
