Newbie - Stereo Query & Wheels

[mister_burns]

Hi All.

Picking up my Park 4 1998 S plate 1.4 CL on Wednesday Currently its running with the standard radio cassette and the steel wheels with centre cap.

How easy is it to swap out the VW stereo for a single slot CD player? Ive been looking on the net for the correct ISO interface lead and car audo direct etc dont list one, justa funny aeriel converter. Does it already have a ISO connection that I can use with no faff? WHats the deal?

Also wheels - If I take out the center car covering the bolts can I fil some later VW trips over the whole wheel? I'm not into that steel wheel painted siolver look and alloys arent on the menu for a while.

Thanks for the help (if I get any! )

This is it at the garage in the hail at the weekend:

looks sweet dude, right i dont know if this is any help, but when me and a friend took out my old radio it came out quite easy and then my headunit plugged straight into the old connectors didnt need any additional things from that i am aware, need get them indicators cleared or smoked

Welcome to the forum....

... when I had my stereo changed it kept re-setting every time the ignition was turned off. Some wires needed changing (not sure which ones but im sure some one here can help)

You need to swap the red and the yellow wires around on the ISO end of the STEREO loom. stops it forgetting the settings

Yeah everything is a straight swap near enough mate, shouldnt have any trouble with what you said.

Thats what I thought but wasn't 100% so thought best keep quiete instead of giving out false info.
