Hi guys, Does anyone know is it possible to fit a new shape octy bolero head unit into a pre facelift octy on a 57 plate, Bearing in mind the bolero head unit has twin arieal outlets on the back of the head unit and the pre facelift head unit only has one arieal lead, it will definately fit into the dash and the wiring looks the same its just the arieal issue. Any info/help would be great

You can get an adapter that converts your single feed aerial into a 2 feed one. I have one on my columbus and it works perfectly. At the moment Kufatec are the only ones to sell one, and it will cost almost as much as the cable in postage back to the uk.

hi take your radio out because i have a 57 l&k and the radio has 2 ariel imputs

It should be pointed out that you only need the antenna adaptor if you want to listen to anything but FM. And with the in-dash 6CD, SDHC card support and the option to add the MDI interface for iPod and USB connectivity, you're not exactly short on listening options
