wow your of great help.

yes face-off sounds a good idea, they look rather tempting sitting in the dash of the car for thieves :S

will it take navigon satnav software you think ?

im guessing the 200 quid mark sounds about right

i'm pretty sure that its the round bmw type connector on the back of thses 6 disc units and autoleads do a cable but think its listed for use with a discovery? i'll have a look at the autoleads fitment spreadsheet but could do with seeing the harness first and I ain't got time to whip it out over the weekend

currently ripping all the kids dvd's to avi's so i can whack em all on an 8gb card so i ain;t got loads of discs floating round the car

Quick answer, yes! Navigon also runs on Wince05 or newer.

£200 is OK, but keep looking, better out there!!

that one dont look like it has the steering controls.

so far this looks cool: TD713G 7'' Car Double Din Digital Screen DVD Player GPS on eBay (end time 04-Mar-11 21:35:23 GMT)]


iv allready changed my factory fitted 6 disk changer on mine, to a single din version.
yes there the weired bmw pin connectors but i got an adapter from auto leads like you mentioned which turns them into convensional plugs for aftermarket stereos.


they also do another lead, that i also purchased which conencts the steering controls to my head unit.

i cant do without them, i use them alot

Now here's one to look at, if you've already got the adapted for wheel control then this could be good, mind you sometimes they forget to list full info, since the speaka no engrish!

this one i bought: Car Audio & Security: Car Stereo, Speakers & Subwoofers, Car DVD Players, GPS and CD Changers


depends on the year of your freelander tho, after 2004 they changed to this type.
otherwise there the round pin type (bmw type)

mines 54 reg and its got the type i have shown (in the link)



not that i know of, no harmon kardon.

i want to change my speakers, there not loud enough lol so guess there only original speakers. not upgraded ones

Something like that would be handy, but my unit only has the wires on the back so I've got to attach them to the ISO myself, I need a blank ISO and pins!! Or use the one currently fitted on my factory unit.
