UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

i am (at some point) going to get a new head unit. i've been idling over this for a while now but it will happen sooner or later.

the only problem is that i currenlty have the standard vw head unit, plus a cd player in other DIN slot, as well as teh 6 disk changer. this means when i get a new head unit i will have an empty DIN slot.

i was jsut wondering if anyone happens to have a spare DIN cubby box knocking around, as they are £24 off vagparts which seems a bit steep for a little plastic box!

cheers guys

is your single cd player the type that you use with the gamma cassette head unit (ie in the slot underneath) or is it a whole cd headunit? does it have a screen on it? if so does it light up blue like the rest of the dash lights? do you have any pics? (same questions for tim)

thanks.

I cant remember, I'm at uni at the moment so cant check, I'm back in two weeks, or I could try and find out before that?

its a seprate unit that fits in bellow the radio! one wire from it in to the back of ur radio and your good 2 go! no codes 2 mins fitting!
O and yes it doesnt have a sceen but works though the screen on your betta radio and it lights up blue and red just like your radio!
Dont have any pics at the moment if i rember 2 moro ill put it into my gti and take some for u!
