Replace stereo head unit

crabbi · 17th October 2009, 10:01

Hi.
I'm sure this has been covered before but has anyone found a head unit that fits the space taken by the original 75 stereo. The original's about four and a half inches tall & nine and a half inches wide. Not the usual dimensions!
I need one that's ipod/USB etc compatible
Any help greatly appreciated,
Crabbi

i don't think that there is an alternative. You can buy a
new panel, for the 75, on E bay which will accept a single din (50mm) modern unit and costs under £10 with the adaptor leads or you have to modify other fascia plates to accept a double din unit.

This one looks good with the extra pocket above , similar to rover original which go for more money when they come up for sale .No adapter leads though and no idea of quality but looks good value .http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Just noticed greeners still has an original one for sale http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=45694 notice that is just for the surround! .

Thanks folks, bought the fascia already. A lot simpler than I thought.
