RagingKileak Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hey peeps, Looks like my Bose head unit is one of many which skips. Unfortunately I only have a mickey mouse warranty on the car, which doesnt cover it. Is there a fix? If not, are there any nice, close to OEM head units that anyone reccomends? I dont mind dual or single din, but I DO want to keep the original look - colours, black plastic, as close as possible to the BOSE!

H5 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I know that you can get a few double din headunits...... http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/double-din-c-796.html But not many keep anything like the original look... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zummertor Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I found on mine that if I leave it outside overnight with CDs in then it sometimes skips but never if I take CDs out. This is something that the manual indicates can happen, worth taking your CDs out and ensuring they are without condensation before going too far with a replacement.

RagingKileak Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 Yeah but thats insane! Its a 30k car with 6 disks in it... The GT pack is £1500 of that 30k and this just shouldnt happen!!! I might try it in the short term though!! Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennyc Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 You can get a reconditioned one from Nissan and/or Clarion, can't remember exactly how much but it's in the region of £350....or if you want to go new it's around £1000 (ouch)!

Stew Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 And if you buy a recon it'll happen again. I'd buy aftermarket and then keep the original. Come sale time put it back in and then you have a nice new stereo for the next car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
