Hi, Is the 5000 unit compatible with the existing dash aperture / cd player / steering column remote and electrical connections as is the 7000 unit?
I`m not too worried about sound quality as I mostly listen to radio broadcasts, but I`d like to keep the original speaker setup. Any info? thanks fred. |

I have to disagree about this. Just installed 5000 and it sounds as good as 7000. I'm using XCarlink for listening mp3 through USB.
Don't know if tapes sound worse but who listens them anyway 
Was great buy for 10€ ( £7 )

Hi Folks, Spent most of last week hunting for a replacement unit. Loads on EBay, but the auctions are a waste of time IMHO. Finally decided on a "buy now" 6000 RDS unit in walnut finish. Ordered last Weds evening, and the item arrived Friday at 7:30 am. Nice unit, it was up and running within 15 minutes, and I`m well pleased.
Its nice to be able to pop a CD into the unit instead of loading up the changer in the boot. Definitely an improvement on my old 7000 unit. I cant remember ever using the cassette facility on the 7000 anyway.
Cheers Fred.
