Good afternoon everyone
Last year I made a mistake when I changed the Audio 20 for an aftermarket media system[Veyron]
I did check with the UK supplier that it was the correct unit for my year etc,I spoke to a fitter who confirmed the same thing
I changed it because Audio 20 is of course without sat nav [mine was anyway] and I needed a media connection
Since then it has never worked properly, by that I mean not all the speakers have been in use, if I put the seat warmer on the AM band goes off, sometimes I pick up electric engine noise taking me back to the 70's when I fitted my own 8 track player, I cant max out if I want a head banging session as once I get passed half volume the vibration is greater than the sound etc etc
I had the original fitter back and fell out with him Ive had 2 others on my drive that said they wouldn't touch it without £100 min and no promise of a win
Time to do something I should have done 6 months ago
Am I right in thinking a command unit is the only way ?
That being the case is there a good reputable source you could forward to me,or does anyone have one stashed away somewhere
I am not sure I can [want] to afford it so if anyone does have one I would need to understand the cost first please.If the Veyron is good for another vehicle and interests someone then of course would sell if it suits another vehicle???
Thanking you as ever
