dr_broon Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 Pleasantly surprised with it so far.. Haven't had a proper bit fun as the roads were pretty busy on the way home, but it's a massive difference to the old k20 executive. The ride is much better as well... Much firmer and more planted. Only downside so far is the sound system isn't a patch on the old one with the sub in the boot, but that's easily solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I might have a nice double din dvd pioneer for sale if you're looking to upgrade mate? Was the one I had in the typeR, got the optional sat nav unit too. Still debating whether to do the double din conversion on DD so if I don't and you fancy it gimme a shout. Cracking sound from it and it's DAB/USB/MP3/Bluetooth etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_broon Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hmm... Might be interested.. Was looking into double din last night... There's two options - one where you lose the storage in the dash and keep the old radio in for the climate controls, or one with replacement controls and display where the double din replaces the radio, but that costs £200 just for the fascia kit and controls! Looks like the best option though. Gonna go down the speaker upgrade option first though, coz we've got a kit from the old one that adds Bluetooth, Iphone connection and USB using the multi changer connection so you can still use the wheel controls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whip out ashtray Unscrew 2 screws that are exposed Pop gear stick gator out Take out ashtray, then next 2 screws holding storage box in Pull storage box out (easier on the type s than the unit with a little shelf and storage box on the exec. Chop a wee hole in the back with tool of choice (drummer for me) to fit ipod, USB extension cable and mini jack aux cable, then glue back in place with hot glue gun. Fit control for phone functions in coin tray. Stash device in space behind storage box and tidy excess cable, and reassemble dash.
