Yeah that sort of thing looks classy. Like I said Kenwood or Pioneer, cant go wrong.

I wouldnt go near Halfords, best to buy online imo better value and better selection.

well I've had news back about my headunit, she's dead.  :sad:

So I've been looking for headunits and I've found another Kenwood unit (as I've got an ipod cable already plumbed in to the armrest and I CBA to rip it out) I'd like the same unit as Rhys but I really can't afford £250ish for one. Anyway here's the one I'm going for
