I know I shouldn't suggest it, but, halford's... don't quote me on this, but as far as I can remember, Its a connection between the old DIN and what ever the new one is. I know halford's do an adaptor for around a tener I believe. Head unit fit fine into the dash socket too? as there is also a new and old style of 'socket'.
