Title: In car phone
Post by: JezInBrum on 16 July 2008, 03:33:03

Hi, am toying with the idea of upgrading the stereo on my miggy.
I have 98 Elite. Has the Phillips/Bose headunit, 6 disc changer & satnav. Is it a simple job to add the Radio with the Inbuilt telephone? I have had a hunt about for a thread that touches on this and found only one. This was same radio going into a cdx. Is this a viable option or would a cradle make more sense. Personally I am mot a fan but needs must.
Thanks in advance, Jez.
Ps not sure of the model numbers of steroes, apologies.

Model number of the stereo will be written across the front of it.

CAR??? CDR???  CCRT???  NCDC????

those are the sort of numbers you are looking for.

Once that has been established, I`m sure that others will be able to assist you.

They are good stereos, but i ripped all mine out a couple of weeks ago, and sold it on ebay.
The stereo was a ccrt 700, hope this helps.
I fitted a cradle, just as good, plus my head unit is better  :D

Not easy to go from CCR600/800 to CCRT700, different cage, telephone antenna req, different display, different cd autochanger revision etc, TheBoy has  done the upgrade so would be able to advise you.
