Hi there people, this may seem like a silly question, i bought a original MINI CD player but it jumps when i play CD's so im thinking of buying an aftermarket Kenwood head unit, will it fit in place easily and/or do i need a cage or any other fitments? Will it fit the genuine connectors?

Cheers for any help in advance

You will need adaptors - a wiring adaptor, an antenna adaptor and a fascia adaptor.
MikeyTheMini can supply them all

Also, if you have the MFSW (steering wheel audio controls) they won't work without another adaptor.

Thanks Ian
You will need a radio fitting kit - it contains the 3 items needed

Yes ... I found that on your site afterward!

I will probably need one soon as well, along with a Kenwood HU if you can supply one (with wired remote!)

Ian sent you a mail with a list

Cheers people, i have another question for you, my car had a Cassette player in it originally, so i guess i have a WAVE connector?
Mikeythemini, i can see an order coming your way

, do you have the fitting kits in stock?

Cheers again

They made a cassette wave & a cassette boost
If you look at my site you will see pics of both
wave has a 1 piece screen & no dolby
boost has a 2 piece screen and dolby

Great website you have there by the way! Do you have any of those fitting kits for the Wave adaptors in stock?

Thanks for your help

mikeythemini · Feb 7th, 2005, 12:35 PM
