Title: CDR500.
Post by: amigov6 on 08 April 2008, 21:53:34

As you know i've been after another of these for a while. A mate just called round & offered me one for £20. Put it in, tested a burnt & shop bought disc, steering wheel controls & radio stn. display all good & all the buttons light up orange as they should. Plus it's been de coded so works straight off. Not exciting to many of you i know but i'm not fussed with BIG stereos, so happy to have it all back as VX intended! :)

Sounds like a good deal, does it have an in-built heater?

Very good price. Certainly not the best factory fit radio, but perfectly capable...   ...if you don't expect too much from it.
