Hi all.

 

I have seen this deal in Argos (please see weblink) and I was wondering if it would be compatible with a Octavia MK2  2005 reg?

Firstly. Ignore the spec on there. For one it will not put out anyware close to 220 rms.

 

Compatible. Yes but you will need to buy all the correct mounting kits and wiring. Its not plug 'n' play

Many thanks  ryan-re for your reply.

 

Can you or someone else from the forum please  advise me on a car stereo model with the correct mounting kit? I am thinking of something up to £100 for my Octavia MK2.

 

No aftermarket headunits come complete with the facia kits and wiring adaptors. You need to buy it all seperately

 

The wiring harness is from connects2. Price wise I believe is around £25 but could be more. You'd need to contact connects2 for the exact model.

 

Facia kits can actually be got from skoda. This includes mounting kit and new facia trim to go around the headunit and heater controls.

 

You will also need a fakra aerial adaptor as the oem headunit is fakra and aftermarket units are not
