and it sounds way better than standard though i might look to upgrade the speakers as they can't really handle the extra power

plugged straight in mate - all i had to do was wire in the aerial amplifier
think the headunit came with its own mini-loom which plugs straight into the VW loom - i'll double check tonight though if you want :smiley:
-
Yeah if you could check for me please mat ethat would help. :cool:
-
I believe all Golfs are ISO standard but possible bar the Mk5 :wink: so you wont need a PCD lead
-
all golfs are ISO but the mk5 is FAKRA
-
Cool cheers dudes :cool:

Just as an option, has anyone got or seen one of these in action?

I'm after a DoubleDin unit but don't fancy having it 'half inched'. This is the only one i've found with any sort of removable face.

I'm in the markwet too for a double din head unit.
i woul dlike something with bluetooth and sat nav, really like teh VW RNS 510 but its way too pricey! And for that amopunt of money I'm sure I could get a decent Alpine or other after market unit.
Any recommendations?

Hi,
Has the price of the pioneer increase from £224.99??, or am I missing something?
On CAD its £279.99.
thanks!

all the major manufacturers alpine kenwood pioneer upped their prices in april
alpine have gone up 30%
kenwood 20-25%
pioneer 20-25%
-
Yep I agree with that, went back in to buy the same unit from the same store for my girlfriends polo and it was £80 more expensive!
I then reminded him I had bought one the previous month from his show for that £80 cheaper :wink: haha
-
well well well....
I've never seen car audio actually go up in value!
reckon CAD will sell me one for £225 if I ask nicely??
lol
-
the problem is manufacturing costs have escalated and of course that cost has been passed on to us

Adam mate! Hows the Polo? All good I hope! Have you done anything to it yet? You mentioned you were going to get some wheels, I see you have got a new stereo too! :cool:

Manufacturing costs have gone up and the euro is very strong as the pound is weak at the moment which is crud for us in the UK :cry:
A lot of companies hiked up their prices in April from the start of the Fiscal year but I still managed to get me a Pioneer F900BT for a cracking price :cool:
