Ah, but there is a credit card size holder supplied with the stereo. Guess lots of them have gone astray inthe last 10 years.

on my miggy if i take the key panel of the head unit there is a slot i.e credit card size is this for a mobile phone sim card or not ???? if it is can you use pay as you go sim card in there or does it have to be contract (just wondering how you top up pay as you go cus some networks you have to use the hash or star button ???) any help would be great

Wayne
used to have one meself...i used an o2 sim in mine ..worked perfect...the reason it only takes certain sim cards is that when you buy a sim card it is attached to a credit card sized "holder" its this that you insert into that slot.DO NOT REMOVE THE SIM FROM ITS HOLDER ...the position of the sim in the holder corresponds to where it connects in that slot...o2 and one other are at the top right of the holder, orange and co are in the centre and wont connect to the terminals in the phone, hope this helped..
thats a great help matey thankyou for that, will visit the o2 website and get some ordered asap

if you need to take it out to top it up, take sim from holder and put into mobile, to get it back into the car fone...i used a ticket from a carpark machine....put this under the sim holder so the sim doesnt fall through..push both into carfone.when the sim and holder are in a little slide carpark ticket from underneath..sim card holder will take the sim on in

good point just that some of them when you top up you have to use the hash key at the end of the code
