Fitting car stereos (4 Viewers)

[LastGarrison]

Anyone know of anywhere or anyone who can fit a CD player into a Vauxhall Astra for me?

Just rang Halfords but they'll only fit a stereo bought from them, which is fair enough I suppose.

It's easier than you think

I bet you could do it very easily. They just plug in nowadays.

Nyanza in Holbrooks will do it, they fit your own stereo as well quite reasonable. Quote my name 'Nathan' as well

I think you are over estimating my technical capabilities.

I'm interested as to how easy it actually is? I was put off by a quote in Leamington and still have my standard fitting.

I like how you put "Nathan" as well as if I couldn't deduce it from your username.

Cheers anyway I will give them a buzz in a minute.

I bought a stereo from amazon, I took it to halfords and they fitted it for me. Only charge £25 to do it.

what car are you fitting the stero in ?

It depends on the stereo, if it is a newish car you just get a connector kit and a fascia kit and just get the U shape pins to take your standard one out and job done. Connect the new one up and slot it in

My stereo is probably 6 years old, bout 250quid at the time. Car is fiesta 1998. Easy or NSE?

Rang them and they told me they only fit the ones bought there.

Sounds like a lot of hassle and I'd rather just bung someone a bit of dough to do it for me.

Try Elliots. Think they do it.

Should have listened to you earlier. Just had a look at it all and fitted it in 5 minutes flat.

Cheers to Rich for the offer via PM as well.
