I have my eyes on a JVC model with Bluetooth.
Looks a nice clean unit and a bargain at under £600.

Its a double din, seen it on the car audio security website.

very good, what does it look like in situ, doesnt it stick out a bit?

[s_tether]

Yes, it sticks out about 3-5mm, looks good enough for a casual look though. In the dark, just looks original.

How on earth did you get that off the original stereo?!

Do you have a pic of it on?

IIRC i did it all for about £200, that got me bluetooth, gps, 80gbs worth of music, touch screen, dvdrw, wifi..........you name it, i had it, carputers are far more fun than proper stereos,

i'll do the same again in my golf at some point.

Camera is only about 1.5cm in diameter and is located on the underside of the car's rear bumper. It is still higher up than the underside of the car and so there is no danger of catching it. You cannot see it unless your head is literally a foot from the floor. I'll get a piccie out when I can.

Blessani,
I hadn't thought about taking this route before, but it looks like a good method of getting all you want for not much outlay. My only issues would be having to make (or have made for me) a custom pod and the possibility of having to alter the dash when the car is only a couple of months old.
