I want to replace the stereo with something that doesn't sound like a plastic cup on the end of a taught bit of twine.
Not sure what needs replacing, although I suspect speakers and head unit must go. Who's done what to beef up their tunes then ??

let me know what happens .. from what i've read here it's a toss up between head-unit or speakers ... assuming you've not got lots to spend.

i'd prefer to just do speakers as i like the idea of nobody wanting to nick my 2DIN and not worrying about breakins - regardless of how much you have to spend.

Head unit, IMHO. I'm still running around with just a replacement head unit and it's a large improvement.

For speakers, even just spending 50 quid on a new set of fronts will get good results.

Defo Head unit, made the biggest improvement for me, if I was doing it again I probably wouldnt replace the rear speakers at all just spend more money on the front componnents or an amp.

If upgrading the headunit, what do you use to fill the hole uderneath? Is a cubby unit available from dealers?
