Which single DIN fascia/tray? As these look different.
« on: 13 May 2012, 18:52 »
Autoleads: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Golf-MK4-Double-Single-Din-Fascia-Panel-Pocket-Tray-/250893244382?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a6a6717de

Dynamic Sounds: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Golf-MK4-Double-Single-Din-Fascia-Panel-Pocket-Tray-/350437476099?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5197b38703

Notice the Dynamic Sounds tray looks empty - so you could put stuff in it.

Look at the Autoleads one ... Looks like there's all sort of plasticy obstacles in there to stop you from putting stuff in the tray.

Is it just a bad picture, or is the Autoleads one a poor unit & it'd be better to buy the Dynamic Sounds one?

Because it's an extra £3.60 but more importantly - looking at the photo it looks tatty as hell.

& the other ones better work. They're advertised as working & the dynamic sounds one has now been bought.

gm8 - i know, but i actually searched for an OE one & they're all either 1) silly overpriced or 2) tatty as hell.

Scrap yard isn't really an option either due to working hours.

Just hope the one bought does the job well enough.

Oem one.  Even better get a Polo one (do a search on mkivs) because that way you can have the head unit at the top where you can see/reach it.  Cupholders do foul it there however.
