Aww nice thanks mate
Currently reading:
Panda The Black Rat aka my 100hp
I'd go for Dark edition Gav since u have black Panda. Smoke would be visible. Dark would give u stealth look. If u still not sure u can always Photoshop both to see which u'd prefer.
Yeah just not sure how visible the indication would be through the dark edition! They are €25 before delivery also

Do it!! :devil::devil: any help you want dude just ask!
I got it from euro performance. It was the cheapest I could find but it took about 3/4 weeks to arrive. If you want it a bit quicker you can pick it up on eBay for around £10 more than I paid for it.
Just a word of warning, although it fits. It has been made for the 500 1.4 engine so part of it needs to be tweaked. I have spoken to Pipercross but they said they didn't have a 100hp available to them at the time of designing it. That said the noise is great at 3k-4k revs lol
Welcome to 100hp modding ... Your bank balance will never the the same again lol
Update
The cables have arrived! So now begins the install! Missing from the picture are the RCA's and the power lead so this should be interesting!
Still trying to decide where to mount the iPhone? Any thoughts? I was going to pop it in the glovebox

LOL Gav, good luck with that spaghetti mate
.U know how I love giving ideas for mods
, so here is what I did for my iPhone dock.
Cut and bent alloy plate into shape to follow the set route. Spayed id black, back plate too to look professional. This bracket gonna sit level with the bottom of the head unit on the right hand side of it with the iPhone sited in the gap between head unit and instrument cluster but high enough so that steering wheel doesn't obstruct it. :devil:
Yeah I was looking there but didn't want to drill the dash! I was thinking of running the cable to the cup holders and mounting it down there.
In my Mini, I mounted it in the armrest so it was hidden away but not much chance of that in the Panda!!

I bought a brodit mount which fits between the radio & instrument cluster.
You undo one screw on cluster and use a gap opener on radio and it slots in.
Then put a brodit iPhone holder on the mount & the phone is next to the stereo. Perfect!
I will get a photo of it later, but here's the URL for it.

Thats exactly what I made! Mine doesn't hook over to cluster side thats why back hand is soo long coz it feeds through just like Brodit but I'll fix it to the head units cage.
How much is this bracket?

It's all in! Ran out of time yesterday but just finished it all off. Ill sort out a how to on another day but I think the photos show the amount of cabling you end up with! I've added Bluetooth to the head unit too so that should do for the time being.
So this is what I started with:
Using the usual stereo removal tools:
Once removed, I wasn't expecting this!
Once all removed, I needed to add some clips to the Facia adaptor:
So all empty ... For the moment!
Then spaghetti junction arrived!
All in! Bluetooth mic in place too

looks great. does the single din space at the top sit flush to the outer border?
Not fully. It's a very slim bit of plastic but I'm thinking of putting some gauges or a scangauge up there so ill push it out a bit more

I had the same squashy problem with mine too. I took it out this morning and noticed 2 little plastic lugs that don't fit flush so cause the squashed appearance.
So...... Out with the Dremil. 2 minutes later! Job done
If I dont forget, I ll take a picture of mine 2 din unit Gav.... U dont want to be in my shoes mate! My head unit apart from usual power and main cable plug, mic and FM antenna also has USB lead at the back, 1 DAB antenna with a DAB Module (that I tucked under glove compartment) also has 2 separate antennas for freeview TV, an Iphone lead! and I can add another 3-4 cables for rear camera, AMP or any other additions for rear passengers. Thats is after me having to cut a bracket at the back, inside that opening because head unit was sticking out by an 1 inch out
.Panda was not designed to have 2 dins!!! :bang:
Update (sort of)
Although not modifications, I have invested in one of these together with a few other bits from the Autobrite range.
I've also bought an x-hose to make the cleaning bits a little easier to pack away lol
