never used MP3's before but the last unit i brought is MP3 compatible, certainly saves money buying a CD changer
i've got a Kenwood mini-disc unit for sale if your interested :wink:

This is a very nice unit which is 6 months old, does MP3 and WMA so you can rip your cd's to windows and put em all on 1 CD (1 CD will hold in excess of 10 CD's in normal format)
• KDC-W6527
• 4 x 50 W
• 2 RCA preouts
• 1 RCA Auxiliary Line Input
• CD-R/RW Capability
• WMA & MP3 Decoder Built-in
• Rotary Volume Control
• 4 Tone 3D F/L Display
• Motorized Slide, TDF
• Remote Control Included

If I dont sell it will probably replace the standard unit in mine...how easy is this?

Its pretty easy to replace the std volvo head units, but you do need volvo to iso connectors and depending on what model you have you could need a blanking plate/ cubby hole.

Volvo unit is the size of a small country so thats why I dont like it.
Where r the blankings/cubbys available from?
The unit cost me £200+ but if I replaced the standard volvo unit (with CD changer) I could probablt get that for it on E bay!!!
I do like Kenwood audio,,,proper stuff.
This unit is VERY NICE..took a long time in choosing it so would be looking at least £100,,,u r better buying off E bay I guess,,

I had a double din so i know how you feel. You can get the cubby's from Halfords at about 20quid which is what i have but they r crap think most people get them from the dealerships and from all accounts arnt that expensive, well not as bad as halfords.

the first ICE install BT had was a full Kenwood set up (must have been over £3K of there stuff) the quality & sound of there stuff is top notch. But the subs couldn't handle all the power & the cones split in halve (literally), all got changed for VIBE then
