It came to the time where I wanted to fit an Android radio for want of a better name for it. This was mainly because I wanted satnav built in rather than have to use my Garmin.

I got one of these


The Panasonic radio in the car had been pretty much stuffed in for want of a better description.

First job was to remove the surround that had a storage slot built in.

To fit the new unit I used existing holes

The Seicane came with fitting brackets but they had to be trimmed a lot to allow it all to fit in the space available.

The surround required a lot of modification to enable it to fit.

Next came what I consider to be the most irritating part. I had bought a lead to go from Android to ISO but when I tried to plug the Panda's lead into it it would not have any of it. I bought a costlier one and that delayed the connecting.

However, it is all installed and operational and all I have to do now is learn how to use it fully but my initial impression is that it is superb.
