Sold : Alpine Head Unit
Posted: Fri Apr 13, 2012 10:33 am
I've upgraded my Head Unit in the car, as I wanted something 'specific' to a techie like me.

Therefore I have a perfectly good working Alpine Head unit now just lying around. It's a CDA-9831R, complete with the additional KCA-420i Interface adapter for iPods
It's been in my car for 6 years, so lets not pretend it's new.
Radio works well - it's not DAB, which means you can do long journies
Connector kit means you can connect an Ipod via the apple connector and have access to all the songs / artists / playlists accessible via the Head unit.
Has less functionality with iPhones though - plays via the Head Unit, but you can't select the tracks due to the differences of iOS.
CD Player works perfectly, also plays MP3 / WMV / digital CD's, so you can make up a CD with a few hundred tracks on it - if you so desire. ( and therefore not have original CD's - or as any disks in your car )
The remote is small and ideal if you have Harnesses - so you dont have to lean across to do 'owt via the head unit.
Buyer collects ( if you fancy a run out ) - I tend to work most Tuesday nights so rarely get to Buckles.
Lets say the whole she-bang is free if you make a £20 donation to Martin House hospice.
