Swapping head unit

[Med_tech3]

I have just purchased a 2008 C3. It has the factory fitted cd/mp3 head unit but without bluetooth. I have a factory head unit from a 2011 207 which has bluetooth. Is there any way I can fit the bluetooth head unit to the C3 and get the bluetooth working?

Thanks
Simon

Not necessarily.

If you are talking about the RD4 system that you may already have and replacing it with an RD45 which has the integrated Bluetooth, then you will need to have a compatible multifunction screen with the correct software version to go with it. It is the MFD that does a lot of the work and in most cases controls the head unit.

The you will need it configured correctly for your vehicle using Diagbox.

Thank you Marc.
I can get the display unit out of the 207. Would it fit the C3?

They are pretty interchangeable but it is an EMF-C screen you need. If the screen was from the 207 that also had the same RD45 Head Unit with the bluetooth built in, then it will probably be fine, apart from the BSI / Head unit needing configuring.

Thanks Marc. Do you have any recommendations of where I can get the software and cables I need for Diagbox?

While the Forum has no association with them Easy Diagnostics offer a very good DiagBox setup. It has the full 'chipset' (as it were), and can 'read' pretty much any PSA vehicle. They are not cheap, but many people consider them worth the cost (I have an older unit, and wouldn't be without it). There is a discount available to long term Forum members, and Marc can tell you what that involves.

Have a look at my post here - there's a discount for members too:
