Car Stereo Deals & Offers

who buys these?

Halfords had Bluetooth ex display a month or so ago i picked one up for 20. Maybe worth asking instore (when you can)

Yes, but you would have to pay three times the price of this one for one with DAB or twice the price for one with Bluetooth.

Not bad price but..... No Bluetooth No DAB

Expired its 229 now

Hot Because you don't find many car stereo deal anymore

That also takes up screen real estate and can be knocked though. I guess the logic of a rear one is to use an extender and have a floating cable or a surface-mount USB elsewhere.

The rear USB put me off the Pioneer units, a stupid idea especially for playing music from a USB stick... Yes you can have a lead hanging down from it but a front socket for me is tidier.

Should be fine , you may need to use the side brackets of your existing unit or use the cage supplied with the new one.

Put the music on a USB stick and plug it in. Why do you need Bluetooth? It's always cutting out anyway.

Pull out head units back in the day... pop into glovebox for added security! ah those memories (lol) :S

Think this is just paying for someone to install it for you at Halfords. A £30 installation fee.

You get 10% off in store if your an AA member ( discount code in the APP) or a member of the blue light services).

This has to be the winning comment! Good ol Minidisc!

I remember car units use to be around £100-£400 this is cheap

sold out in a 50mile distance to where i live

For the price I will add heat for this. Somewhat tempted just for the USB music play back but as others have said id rather Bluetooth

99 1.6 petrol, same engine as the saxo VTR I think. My door cards and seats had blue denim looking trim. Completely standard except for the sound system haha. My mate had the Meridian and it looked fantastic. It was owned by my grandad so only had 49k when I got it at 10 years old. Wouldn't hesitate to buy another to be honest.

I had tastefully-ish modified 98 1.9tdi and it was the comfiest car I have every owned to date, like driving an armchair. I'm so jealous that you had a petrol

No longer available

£181.14 now :)

Most towns/cities have markets with umpteen shops selling car accessories. Ludhiana, Patiala etc all have such markets. Karol Bagh in Delhi has a concentration of such shops.

what do you mean car accessories area

Ah that sounds good, might be visiting soon so I'll give it a shot. Cheers mate.

Cheers mate, il take a look. (y)

Or the 1005 is 251

Amazon UK (y) 🏻 And I checked Dynamic Sound and that's got it for £305 I think

Where’s that at please mate?

The Sony XAV3005 is now £284.50 if your interested in that??

DAB is also playable using a 78rpm record played on side 2 only if that helps, I'm not sure if it will work with Betamax though but worth a try! (skeptical)

What is this DAB and can I play it on my 8-track?

OOS, just about to bite as well 😡

That's too new tech for me.. Just getting to grips with DAB 8)

Definitely not happening for me in the app, pain this is exactly what I’m after

Back to £159 now

Have you checked eBay?

Try from Ali express for after market stereos from sellers who have EU warehouse (to save custom charges). I am not sure about your van year of registration but try this link for 2010-2018 models.

Prius ?

It comes with a Male to Female USB extension so that you can easily plug usb into it after extension :)

Not In stock near me... North East

Sorry if my question sounds abit silly, would this this play music from an iPhone either via USB or Bluetooth??

No stock in Fort William ;(

I bought one of these from the Halfords Ebay shop for £32 a few months ago and it was easy to fit and works really well. Plus you can control it with an app on your phone unlike that Sony stereo that I posted last month.

HEAT OP. :D Got a similar one a couple of years ago from Halfords, fitted for a few extra quid. Great sound. The kids have all their film & cartoon soundtracks on flash sticks. Holiday drives are a nightmare!!! Lol (y)

Standard Suzuki fit at the moment,they sound pretty good...the 800w sub I fitted makes all the difference,I like a bit of a kick :)

Thanks. I had a cheap Kenwood in my other but the mic was absolutely rubbish. What speakers did u install it with?

I think its one......I know my WX920 and the Kenwoods are to.

Thanks for the detailed response. Another question for you, does the Bluetooth allow one phone or 2 connections?

The only 3 worth comparing to that Sony are the Sony WX920BT £96 Halfords with 10%code usually £107....Kenwood 5100 bluetooth £107 Amazon and a similar Pioneer at £119...Dab versions of Kenwood and Pioneer are both £140ish.. there's a few Jvc models around the same prices....most others above that price are touch screens,80% have no disc drive now.

Is fitting free?

POPS19 doesn’t work;(

Thank you but is a bit expensive for me :)

I changed mine last week,2014 Suzuki Grand Vitara,whilst the fitted stereo was ok it had no usb,bluetooth or connections to wire a sub....bought a more expensive Sony (£96),facia and steering wheel controls adaptor /harness...sounds 10 times better especially with the sub plus I have usb and bluetooth/hands free as well and it doesn’t look out of place.

I used to do it in the 90s... friends would pull up in the driveway.. civic, r33, fto, uno, Renault 5, clio and so onwas a long time ago. Lol.

It says "play music through 3.5mm auxiliary"... But it looks like there's 2 jacks on the back.

The 3.5 mm jack on the back is probably the remote for steering wheel controls,if not that a mic for phone use....pretty sure it's the remote on a Pioneer though.

I'd prefer a front usb as i would use a stick or ideally both front and rear ....I'd be a bit worried about the usb lead you would need to use at the rear working loose or moving about,depending on the car fitment it could be a pain to get at to fix.

Yes is it.. it means adding a usb extension and having it dangle all over the shop or cutting holes to mount a fixed platform, or not using the USB.... I usually use a mini USB stick with 5-10k songs on it, which can easily be added to /changed or my phone... There isn't even a 3.5mm jack on the front, thats on the back as well... It would have cost Pioneer about 5p to put USB and 3.5mm on the front as well...

Not really

Bought this a month ago for around the same price on ebay. Easy to install with the iso harness and steering control kit. Great unit.

I also have a subwoofer already wired into my double din kenwood I won’t need to do anything additional to bring it to this stereo would I ?

Good price for a fab unit. I have the XAV AX100 model in my Golf. Had it since Xmas and love it. Never had any problems connecting my phone XZ premium or my mates iPhone. Sony are the only ones who give you the 4x55 Watts and the extra power on high volume's is never a problem. Android auto has been fantastic and so easy to use. Just plug your phone in via USB cable and good to go There are plenty of reviews on Halfords website and Amazon. The only kit I needed to fit my Golf was connects 2 steering wheel module so can control the volume and settings of steering wheel plus fascia. Kit was around £50. Easy to fit as plugs into the original iso plug.

I bought this same unit a few months back and my Samsung phone wouldn't connect also

Saw I saw One 2 star review on Sony's site. The only review. Nothing remarkable and not easy to use XAV-AX3005DB 17/03/2019 by Nick238 I bought this product as an after market audio for my Fiat. The device is NOT compatible with my Samsung phone (device not recognised) and switches off every time that the car automatically stops its engine (start/stop device). The graphics seem to be very naive or simple, and I do not feel that is is a patch on the Pioneer radio that I had installed in anothe car some years before.Show less

Got mine and it's basically brand new, so got lucky!

And in fairness, I've bought a few things graded as 'like new' and they've been trash.

Got one to put in my old cheap car, hopefully it'll work.

Understood, but in fairness Amazon usually grade the goods. I've bought a few things before and they've turned up like new.

No need myself but ask yourself why the original purchaser returned the item to Amazon? I would have returned it if it didn't work, i screwed up and killed it or it was no good. If it was returned unopened or damaged box the description would state that.

sold out i think.

Is this still available? Can't find it on their site now...

Can anyone tell me will this work without the green cable being connected to the handbrake.Thanks

You're lucky, mine has wax cylinder.

Yes

Seems a fair price,but these days its got to have DAB at least.

Speaking as someone with an Xtrons... If you don't need the screen, go ahead. My screen died after only a couple of months and have since had to use it by guess work - leaving it in Bluetooth mode and using my phone (hands free) to pick music /radio etc. I'd pay the extra myself and get a device from a reputable name.

Agreed, I asked the guy who installed my pioneer if he had fitted many of the Chinese head units, his reply was “ I replaced lots of them “

Will it work on my meriva???

Easy to fit in the MK5. Takes maybe 20 minutes at most, plenty of YouTube tutorials

It says collection not available and delivery not available!

Decided to keep my banger for another year...this helps keep it.

Perfect upgrade for an older car, BT and DAB is all you need! Was hard to find anything with both this cheap a couple years back. Heat! Wonder if it comes with the DAB antenna though.

Highly unlikely. Didcot is my nearest at 184 miles away

Is this available in all stores?

There's a better bargain ?

......b but it cant play a good old CD (lol)

Also remember there is no CD player with this, its just a radio, no more

Need to purchase and install a DAB antenna to get the best reception.

Actually managed to get one of these reserved at my local.

It says it does have bluetooth...

Hence why it's £35

But they were trying to get £60 for it and no Bluetooth at that price seems unreasonable.

Bose headphones

No Bluethooth and no dab, no cd. Has this got a radio?
