You'll not get a better head unit for the money.

Mikey - I'm really interested in this mate but have a minor query.....
Could you make this work with the standard MINI CD changer?!? Whether you have to chop & change leads or whatever?!?! Or will I have to invest in a different CD changer?

As I said, I'm really interested in it & I probably will go for it in the end but just wanting to know if I have to spend more of my hard earned pennies!!

Hear from you soon,
Dave

No way of getting any aftermarket radios to work with the factory changer
Would you need one?
Since I fitted an MP3 player to my car I no longer need one - just burn 10 albums onto a cd & you can flick through them like a changer.
Or add an ipod through the aux in

Thumbs up

Well considering I've wasted my time opting for the 6 CD changer (the buggers even gave me a wave radio and not the boost I thought I'd get) I am in the market for a new radio.

I am indeed very interested. And Seems as I only live a stone's throw away in Manchester it'd be nice to pop over and say hi, Mr. Guru!

Appart from getting the numbers together, when do you think this would happen. How much will the harnesses cost and can you do me a deal on RCA leads for my sub???

I've had my dash in bitz wiring up a high level connection to my sub as a temp measure. It's pretty darn easy so will have that liddle Clarion in there in a flash!

Thanks for the offer Mike.

I'm breakin' her in officer...........Honest!

It's a company car, think I will have to keep anything original and restore the car when I hand it back in 3 years.

I don't have the MFSW but alot of head units come with remote's these days.

Check your PM's
