Should just drop straight in the slot fella, no worries at all. I think i had to hard wire mine (pioneer). If thats the case its really simple to do

Fiat actually made a good choice, and made the fitting for the radios universal, so any CD player can be installed without an adaptor.

What about the connection?
Do i need to buy any extra iso connector adapter?

It does, thats what it says in the box picture.


I have the factory fitter speaker in my Fiat. What are the sizes of those in front and the back? Are they replaceable?

well if its got 4 holes in each corner of the stereo, you just cut up an old wire coat hanger and push them in each hole and it clicks and you just pull the stereo out, job done, if not then i aint got a clue, lol thats just how my sisters came out.

Re: Fiat Punto 55SX & Kenwood KDCW4031 Car MP3 Player

This is a bit off topic, but alot of the mk1 head units allows a cd changer to be added to it, either the rc 026 or the rc 082.

I have the rc 026, it means you keep the dash looking original, and if you have steering wheel controls you can use them to control the cd changer (tracks, volume, cd change etc.)

Price: my one was 65.00 on eBay from a Peugeot 406, vary from 19.99 to 10.000, the cost of a new one is £200.00 (the only difference being it has a VDO Dayton fasia - part of the philips corp now)

Pic, this pic was taken before i fitted it into the boot:
