That's not a Beetle - Beetles have the engine BEHIND the rear wheels.  That is mid-mounted.

Good choice.

MUCH better than those 1M things - I mean what sort of twonk would buy a car that plays engine noise through the speakers to massage the ego of the driver..... oh hang on....
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

The radio in my cayman is ok but I want something a little newer with USB input so I've bought a pioneer AVH-4400BT along with a pioneer cayman specific fitting kit - more pics to follow later - wish me luck ;-)

Current radio:

Thanks Dom,

I lost my rag when fitting it as the pioneer "custom bracket" annoyed me so I ripped the front clean off the radio and dragged the rest of the set and cage out of the dash.....

Pics to follow  :grin:
