2000 XANTIA 2.0HDI RADIO/CD PLAYER

Post by bill hughes »

Hi all can anyone suggest a radio/cd player that will fit my car whereby I can still use the steering controls, I have a radio with an SD card but its not connected to the controls, also when I switch the ignition off everything goes back to the beginning, very annoying, many thanks.

It needs the feed wires switching over to retain the memory, check your radio installation diagrams, one is switched one is live on off.
There are adapters on ebay that allow the wheel controls to work....not sure which one for the late radio but they do work with most after market radios.

I've still got the unit referred to here: http://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/v ... od#p444206" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Can't see it would cost that much to post to France if you are still there....

I'll stick it on the scales and see what it weighs. Does you car have the later radio surround (with the single DIN slot and fold up cover)? If not, I've got that too to make a neat job of the installation.

Ah, found some pics:

Yes Richard its the same as in your photos, you pull the flap down and press the top of the flap and it returns automatically, while I've got you on line mate what grade of oil would you use in it.

Cheers Bill

Hi Richard did you manage to find out how much your radio/cd would cost to send to France as I am still very interested in it, I will be away for a week as from Friday the 4th am. and will have no access to the internet, will be back on the 10th

many thanks Bill

Sorry Bill, been a bit distracted with building work... I'll weigh it tonight, but probably best to delay sending it till next week if you are away. It will be cheaper without the dash part anyway!

Would that be a flip up dash cover, the type I have been looking for by chance that you will now have spare ?....:)

Bill: Radio weighs just under 1.5kg, so it would be £12 postage - PM you about the price.

Sticky: It is - it's off a MK2 though, don't know if it will fit a MK1?
