So I'm looking at upgrading the standard head unit in my 2009 Octy VRS and was wanting to keep the original look, hopefully incorporating the parking sensors and heating/fan readout on the unit.

I found the kenwood DNX521DAB made for VW/Skoda/Seat, which does all the above including Nav and Bluetooth. Cheapest price I have found is £900.

Does anyone know of any similar units out there? Not too bothered about the Nav.....

Thanks in advance.

I just got the kenwood ddx6021bt, not a patch on the one you mentioned but I'm happy with it it reatails at £4-500+ but its available for £260 (ex-demo) but they're immaculate.

Thanks kiddy, just had a look. The sort of thing I am after, do you know if its compatible with parking sensors?

It's compatible with just about everything I think mate, reverse camera, sat nav bla bla bla

Are these simple to fit and did you need to get any trim parts?

I must admit, this is the first head unit that I have had fitted properly. I just thought that should anything go wrong with fitting, I don't want to break something so expensive.

And yes for a fascia (£7 trade price) or £20rrp
