Title: Need some Suggestions on moving the stereo head unit?
Post by: crusader on May 28, 2007, 21:10:23

Mine as a lot of you are aware is a 200tdi with that Awful Stereo recess in the centre console which is Too Shallow for a decent Stereo!
So i want to move it and i am hoping someone will come up with a decent place for it? Within sight and reach of the drivers seat whilst driving!
Or are there any aftermarket consoles etc?
Thanks in Advance! :roll:

when i got my 200 the sterio was in the pocket above the sunvisor, which was odd but worked not too easy to see screen though. i then put it back were it is suposed to be but used a spacer. wich can be bought off ebay or i made mine.

Had a Kenwood in my old 200, just needs a bit of jiggling around.

You could buy a defender stereo mount and stick it onto the dash?
or maybe somewhere in the roof pockets?
it could fit in the centre arm rest pocket too?
