Right, now I understand! :y

So would the TomTom fit into the space nicely to avoid it being on the windscreen where it gets in the way of your vision, is on show open to criminal attack, and it would look neater anyway?  :-?

Oh well, looks as though it is a pocket replacement you are after! :y

How about searching the breakers Phill?  There is a specialist Vx breakers near me, and I know there are others and around Watford there MUST be one, so that's where I would go unless someone on this forum has one. :y :y

What part is faulty on the carin.  If I can get it working with the bits I have (ie, if its not CD unit in boot), then I have a coin box.

every time you put disk in, it throughs it out, can do straight swap if you like, i never use it anyway, will keep the speaker, unless you have a cream kick panel, without a hole in it

Why do you need these things???? If this keeps up i'm fitting a towbar & getting a caravan (i'll be able to reverse it!!!) because satnavs are equally as sad.
   I'm not ranting, i'm begging...PLEASE STOPPIT. ::)
      Stupid worthless gimmick. Total waste of money & sadder than an anorak.    
    I hope this does'nt count as a rant 'cos i promised to stop that but...........aaaaarrrrrghhh >:( >:( >:(
   I know i'm being irrational but i can't help it, sorry. :(
