Hmm... so its more complicated than I thought.

The car is an early Facelift (April 04), so looking here https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s...ad.php?t=79121 suggests the original would have been an IOVOX.

So my quest for originality suggests that I should look out for one of those, probably a CD80 or M3 100. Can anyone say whether they will they plug-and-play with the wiring I've got? And any for sale?

Alternatively, I could settle for just getting another aftermarket unit that has orange lights that are more sympathetic with the Rover orange dash lights (as opposed to the bright blue lights of the existing Sony unit)
