![]() that's exactly what I've done and I'm pretty pleased with the results, got a fairly cheap pioneer head unit (~£50) from Halfrauds and a fascia adapter from a local scrappy, it was easy to install and made a massive difference, I then got a "mystery 12" bass box deal" from caraudiocentre.co.uk and a cheap wiring kit and now I blast sick choones innit. But seriously adding a dedicated sub made a massive difference again, you have to play with the HPF on the headunit and the amp controls on the sub to get it sounding right. The boot on the saloon is pretty well insulated so I have to have the sub on pretty loud to get the full affect and it sounds better with the rear seats folded down, but you won't have that problem on the tourer

I would like a HK set up as it was original equipment offered as an optional extra to our cars so doing a retro fit would be more authentic but I think that the aftermarket route is now the best option for ICE/sounds in the modern day so I'll have a look at my options.

![]() One thing I haven't tried is just driving with the ski hatch open, that would be preferable to cutting!
