Installing this headunit

[chetannathwani]

Hello,

Im goign to buy this HU http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/products/25/121/61/DEH-P6900IB/index.html


Just wanted to find out if I need to buy anything else to install?

I just want to replace the current standard head unit. Also does anyone know if this works with the stalk controls? Not too bothered if it doesnt really.

Cheers.

You need an extra part to get it to work with the stalks, either one of these
If you want the display to work: http://www.pioneer.co.uk/files/pdf/Car_display_adaptors.pdf
Or if you just want the stalks to work: http://www.pioneer.co.uk/files/pdf/HardWiredAdaptersChart.pdf

I have the last one with my 7600MP, costed me €50 incl taxes at a local shop. I don't rate them that high, they are a lot slower then the stocks, and the radio's are so easy to control that you're a lot faster just pushing the buttons or turning the knob for the volume.



You don't need anything else to get it to work.

But this little thingie I would suggest http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/products/25/38/301/CD-UB100/index.html if you are not connecting an Ipod to the radio. Costs around €100 and you simply plug in a USB-stick (dirt cheap these days).

thanks for your advice! I think this model has an IPOD (ip bus) connection and a Aux in port. So I was thinking of running two sets of wires to the glove. I have an ipod but good to have an extra aux just in case.

Tammie if you got a pioneer or sony you might be able to buy an adaptor to work your sc. Depends what model it is though really...
