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:

Mines a 200 TDi and I have a Sony stereo/MP3 player in. Bit tight, yes, but it fits and I always thought Sony made good systems !!!???
My mind not only wanders, sometimes it leaves completely

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?
