how much did it cost to replace the radio?
radio was £300 then. lot cheaper now.
remote stalk adapter was around 40 (inc delivery)
facia was 9
carbon fibre was 20 (but that's a big role)

yes
Nice and subtle. Like it. Works well.
Works well.3m di-noc carbon vinyl film. The silver looks white in the sun. the black looks good inside.
It's not faired well to be honest. This is down to my application of the vinyl.
It started rippling round the edges, about a week ago.
This is why I am having the wing mirrors painted in an Abarth red.

Hey, new here so apologies if this message is messed up.
Can you explain how you got the OEM bluetooth working as everything else I have read says it's disabled by removing the original radio. I want to get the same HU as you (well the new model which does Pandora radio) but I definitely don't want to lose the original Bluetooth. Gotta love those steering wheel buttons!

even if you remove the OEM stereo, the bluetooth module still works. I will pair to a phone and pick up and drop calls using the steering controls. This works without any mods. Even the original mic works.
You will need a connects2 module to interface other steering wheel buttons (e.g. vol and skip track). This you can buy from shops like halfords. It's a simple plug and play thing. But this is seperate from getting bluetooth to work.
the only difficult bit is to get sound from the bluetooth module into the stereo and out through the speakers. As it turns out it isn't difficult at all.

How did you fit the Ipod holder? with screws in the radioadapter or ?
and where did you get it from ?
