Stereo
I started to change over my seats yesterday, from dirty material to sumptuous leather
Now, the stereo is a quite old Kenwood system, the radio on FM only scans from the 800 to 900 range and looses it's tune as you drive around, the CD jumps if you make a right hand turn. So I'm looking to swap it out and I have a single din Sony to fit in, I removed the stereo yesterday and found this lot
Are these the factory connectors
Any advice would be welcome on my options and as I have a double din hole in the dash, is it possible to fit a single din and a cubby hole/storage pocket.

Re: Stereo
Factory connectors yes. Wiring diagram:
Single Din + adapter/blank/tray/cup holder will fit fine.
You won't need that FM converter with a new head unit.

Re: Stereo
Cheers Stu, so can I get a plug conversion from the factory plugs to my Sony unit then, or will I have to cut wires. Also the cup holder thing sounds cool, where can I get one from.
Thanks
Thanks
