On Friday, fitted new JVC 811 iphone radio cd player with two usb and bluetooth. It's great. 80gb ipod on rear usb, hidden in the dashboard. Bluetooth connects to my iphone, so I can play music, use tomtom on the iphone which lowers the music to give the directions. I can also make calls and access the phonebook on the stereo which has fitted a small microphone next to the alarm sensor - so proper handsfree. And with the same 6x9s and the alpines in front, the sound is truly fantastic.
As a consequence the other JVC along with the 12 CD changer will be going on ebay.
Then on Saturday washed it and took it to fill up with petrol. Driving back, I couldn't change out of third. When I got home I had a look, the little plastic ball socket to ball socket on the gear linkage - one of the sockets had split. So I drove to gsf, changing gear carefully and bought a new one. Had a good chat with the guy there, he has a mk2 with a 20vt in it.
Considering getting one of these now...
