I want to replace my Head unit upto the price of £400 and the standard component speakers in my 01 UK300. Any recomendations please and anyone know the standard size of the front speakers?

Thanks

 

Well no recommendations, so I went out and got the Alpine CDA9833R unit. Seems a decent piece of kit.

Kenward mask unit and CD changer will now be up for sale. Mail me if your interested.

I still want to replace the front components if anyone has any recommendations for those?

 

you made a great choice of headunit.

get some kicker rear speakers oem reps, you have a similar set up to mine then is this your head unit?

 

Yep, that's the one. Picked it up for £320 at the motor show on Sunday.

I've been told about Lanzer components for the front. Any experiance with these?

 

Id recommend either a Alpine CDA-9831R at £300 or the CDA-9833R at jus over your £400 budget. Both are real quality head units.

 

You wont go wrong with Alpine gear

 

Just put a pioneer DEH5500 in my 04 STI Uk together with the silver forester pocket.

Also had the front speakers changed to pioneer "accelerate" 13cm with door sound deadening.

Wow, what a difference!

Speakers approx 120 notes with sound deadening
Head unit 220 notes fitted
Forester pocket 12 quid.

Money well spent!

 

I just fitted these yesterday....

Sounds a lot better than the standard head unit....

Well the Scoob is in to have the CDA 9833R fitted as we speak, so just the speakers left to do. Probably just do the fronts, as I have 2 10" Kenwood Subs in the boot for the bass, and want some quality sounds up front now.

 

How come you didnt fit the Head Unit Steven.

Only takes 10 min tops....

 

The person I got to fit my Kenwwod Mask unit installed everything including the changer in the boot, so for the sake of £20 I let him fit the head unit and mess around disconecting the cd changer etc and putting all the cables back for the amp and subs,

 

i have a 9812rb in my99 turbo and it's unbeliveable great sound and loads of features.

i paid £200 for it on ebay 2 weeks old with box reciept and all extras.


higly recomend it. !!!!
