ISO connecter

[Theo]

Let my just start off by saying i know bugger all about ICE, i once somehow managed to fit a stereo to a renault and somehow it worked. Ive had a look at the back of my old cassette deck, which i want to get rid of, in my pre facelift 325 and i assume you need an iso adaptor of some sort to attach a cd player. Can anyone do me a massive favour and point me in the direction of a suitable adaptor, please not from halfords, i don't want to get completely mugged. Thanks in advance, Theo.

lol i bought a cd player from halfords yesterday for the same price as it was on caraudiosecurity lol

the iso adapter i used was one i had lying around; i took one look at the old one an thought fuck that it. it was greenish looks like it had got wet an not sure if it was compatible. strictly speaking you dont need an iso block anyway but it makes things a dam site lot easier

the last iso block i bought from hellfruads was only 2.99 n e way!

Ԛ£2.99 - nice, thats cheaper than fleagay. Cheers for the tip, now wheres my fake burberry cap, stained tracky bottoms, and stolen reebok classsics.

off you go

i mite have a spare iso block lying around il look in a moment for u

what unit you guna buy? and have u got rear speakers cos if ur only running the front the old iso may work?

[Theo]

What unit? dunno, just want a black one!! Ive only got the old skool speakers at the back which barely work!, going to replace them, but i dont want to cut the rear shelf, just some newer speakers that would fit straight in. Sorry to sound so ignorant here!

[Dan318-is]

iv got some pioneer 6x9 for sale, mounted on some wooden blocks so you dont have to butcher your shelf! its what i used in my old is; the previous owner of my new IS has actually butchered the chassis underneath!! nevertheless there no good to me so if you want em PM me

also got soem alpine crossovers and 13cm components if u wont em!

regarding head units, i bought a pioneer deh 6700 ma? i think. got 50x4 watts, fli[ down screen remote, but the best bit is you can change the colour of the display - i went all orange an it matches the rest of the car now lol how anal am i!

one bit of advice i will give you is, dont buy sony!!

[Theo]

I dont think i'll have the 6x9's, but cheers anyway - is there anything that will slot straight in? Is that what the 13cm components are?!? Cheers.

[Dan318-is]

ye were the front speakers are. old ones out new ones in even use the same connecters.

[Theo]

oh i getcha, my primary concern is the rear speakers mate, they need replacing badly. I'll give you a shout about those bits next week, go back from uni!! Then i can get on the case with my car and sort what needs sorting. Cheers.

[Dan318-is]

i dont think theres any speakers you can buy that will directly fit into the old ones as most speakrs are 6x9 or 7x9, were as the old ones are square things aint they?

give me a shout if u wont those speakers n crossovers mate. O and let me know what head unit you get

[Theo]

Will do mate, head unit will be a cheapy tho, ......i have a 6 pot to listen to!!!!!!
