Aftermarket Head Unit In Is200se


Recommended Posts

has anyone any idea's of how to connect a aftermarket head unit to the is200 se and replacing the bottom loading 6dic oem. i would like to put my alpine unit in my car but have been told that it has a built in amp. does anyone have any idea's how i can connect this leaving the factory amp in. is it just straight iso connection?

also anyone got the part number for the sat nav ribbon as my screen has started changing colours.

the car is a v plate i200 1999. all help appreciated.

thanks

Hi and welcome :D

Not sure about the sat nav

For the stereo.. Do a search in the audio sub forum. Loads of threads in there about this as its been covered loads and loads of times. About 4 threads + in the last 2 weeks alone :)

your sat nav will not work once the stock HU is removed by the way...your need my bypass module......linky

what about if i want to leave the oem amp in there, can i just connect up my new unit into the iso connectors?

Shouldn't/couldn't there be some sort of pinned faq/guide in this forum. I know the info is probably here somewhere, but would be good to have some basic stuff collated to avoid just these sorts of repeat posts. I for one am in the same position of wanting to know what my options are for replacing the headunit but not quite got a clear idea yet... Different models having different amps internal/external, different headunits with upper or lower CD slot etc etc... :duh:

Just found this actually, exactly the sort of info I was looking for:

I agree mate as this subject comes up ALL the time :duh: .. Its only the S model that has an internal amp in the stereo. SE and Sport (that most people have) have the amp behind the glove box :winky:

yes you can (and have to) leave the stock amp in the car, otherwise no amount of electricary will get the nav working again.

you can add a pair of RCA's to the stock HU connector which will give you something to connect your new HU to,

i think maybe there should be a documents section or somet on the site to access all this info, as the search brings back to much. is there not a option in admin area of forum setup to setup a documents area.

if admins need web space for this give me a shout i maybe able to help.
