I'm thinking of getting an aftermarket stereo for my 2008 Grande Punto 1.2 . I'm wondering if there is anything I need to know before buying a stereo or anything additional I may need. Stereo recommendations are also appreciated, thanks in advance :)
 
Basic things you'll need are the fascia adaptor and the wiring harness. If you want your steering wheel controls to work then you'll also need to make sure the stereo you want to buy support that function, and buy the appropriate additional adapter cable.
 
Hi mate,
One thing you need to know. The issue with ACC is the biggie everyone has to deal with.
Basically you need to find somewhere with a live feed to trigger the stereo to turn on. I took a feed from the cigarette lighter (12v) which has worked perfectly.
Before I did that, the stereo wouldn't power up.
A quick search about the ACC issue will come up with a lot on info and help.

Hope this helps :)
