  Had a good day out there yesterday with 11 ABS club cars there. Good weather. managed to manipulate the voting, as other clubs did last year and got one of our LC,s into the top ten line up. Car of the day was a 59 plate Corsa in black with lots of orange strips on it and a young lady driving. last year there was Jon Allen and my Omega there, this year, not a single one. I,ll post up details next year to see if any OOFers want to attend and between us, maybe we can get two cars into the top ten line up!!!

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / CCR 600

« on: 02 November 2013, 14:23:54 »

  Hi all, I,m a bit of a non techy when it comes to what will work with what. I have just bought a Zaf with steering wheel controls but it has a kenwood cd player fitted. Will a CCR 600 fit in and work? Is it a CD player or will it need a changer and lead?
Thanks in advance
