HU-803 v HU-850

[LeeT5]

Can anyone advise me whether a HU-850 will direct swap with a HU-803? I know HU-850 has Dolby II, but what other differences are there and will it work?

850 is for facelift frame.
For preface its a 603 and 803
Facelift is 650 and 850
Basically the 6 is single cd 8 are multi cd

So stick with what I got then? The 803.

if you where to change to the 850 youd have to change the heater unit too with surround to fit.
doing this will then leave a lil gap between that and the console. which then youd have to get a 05+ centre console...

Is you car LH drive !.

Yes and those holes look nasty in the dash! More to the point, why is there half of Brighton beech in the footwell and all over the dash?
