Lastly I have a Gradia "luxury collection" dashboard storage pocket suitable for your phone/ ipod or whatever VIPs keep up front. Finished in a grey marble effect it looks the part. Foam lined tray and small side has a sprung front, hinged at the bottom. Has hooks to attach to air vent and a 3M double sided tape for extra security. The small pocket can be swapped from side to side or removed to suit your needs.

Some scratches to the foam in the bottom as can be seen in the third photo but otherwise perfect. £12 posted

I should have the 10 disc multi changer that was removed at the same time but can't find it at the moment.

Hey lad, this could be a stupid question but I have a kenwood double din, but it doesnt pick up stations (JDM) and the cd doesnt work, will the double din you have receive radio stations and is it working ok?

Cheers

Japanese stereos are set to pick up FM frequencies from 76-90 MHz, most of the world ourselves included use 87.5-108MHz.

It is easy and pretty inexpensive to rectify the problem when using a JDM stereo by using a frequency expander such as this:

I'll try to get photos with the power connected later this evening.

Hope this helps

Update as promised, the single DIN is working fine:

I discovered a fault with the double DIN in the form of the flexible cable between the head unit and the screen. I have ordered the replacement part which is going to take 4 weeks to arrive from Japan. This is a very common fault in head units that have flip out screens and is a pretty simple fix if you can get the right cable.

It'll be back up for sale as soon as it's fixed.

Apologies in the meantime to anyone who was interested.

phone holder sold

Head units gone, still have the speaker grills, amp and 3 of the Kenwood ribbon cables. The cables are approx 7 cm long and £5 each posted. Worth a try if your flip down display has stopped working.
