Looks like a bargain buy to me if you can get hold of one that is

[pinkprobegt]

Maplin do one at £49.99 and I don't think it's just a special offer. Selling my car minus stereo so got one for the new owner, now USB or SD card slot but works fine.

[cuz]

any idea if you can just plug a usb stick in with mp3 files on

[dapex]

any thoughts on the possibility of plugging a phone into the uSB slot and then using the stereo as a hands free kit?

[dapex]

loads of these at my local aldi

[ROne]

I got one of these.

Just what I was waiting for - no more cd burning!

It's a bit flimsy but seems quite well specced - went into my octavia as a more or less straight swap, no wires to chop though the antenna connection needs a deep pronged male connector, so I need an adapter to change over from my old grundig one.

Sound quality is pretty good, and the control system is great -though the display is a bit cheap.

You can't really go wrong for 50 quid.

Going to try and get one if theres any left, and I can actually get there and the shop be open!

Whoes got one and how are you finding it?

Anybody know of any alternatives?
For me the SD card reading bit is whats swauing me.

Thanks.

I tried to fit mine in my wifes Zafira and it stopped the remote central locking for some reason... will investigate later today

[apul]

Oh dear. Well theres nothing that remotley technical on my car!

[dapex]

mines all fitted and working now. bloody good piece of kit

[cuz]

got it all working but if i switch it off then back on i get no sound
and the only way i can get it back is if i disconnect the speakers and reconnect them looks like it might go back

[apul]

I even didn't manage to get one

I'm now looking for a similar alternative

Suggestions on cheapy CD/MP3 unit with card slot


As for your problem. You got the ISO wires the correct way round? In some cases they can cause the system to reset after the power is off.
But since I don't know much about car stereos I couldn't tell you much more.

[cuz]

wiring seems ok as i can set the radio stations up
switch off and on and there still there its just when i switch on theres no
sound head unit is working ok its not until i disconnect the speaker plug and reconnect that i get sound just hope they got some more in stock

I have one of these sets & am very unhappy with it. Once you start to move the car the sound 'pulses' on the Radio. I know my ariel is not perfect but both the MiniDisc/Radio & The original Cassette radio work Ok with the ariel. The stations have vanished at least two times & I've had to load them in again (this is not to do with the ignition on/off). When still the sound on the radio is good, but the sound on MP3s is very poor, lack of frequency both top & bottom missing. I know the MP3s on the disc are excellent, it's a disc I've used a lot before. Is this set a load of rubbish or have I just got a bad one.
