Need help with replacing Bose HU!

[dave_c]

Hi everyone!

 

I'm looking to replace the Bose headunit in my 2003 350z which I have just bought. The screen display has died and buttons on the front have not worked - I can't see many faults like this so I wouldnt know about a repair.

 

I have found a Nav/DVD/CD/Bluetooth thingy on ebay and want to know if it is possible to get it to work with the original Bose speakers etc and hopefully steering wheel controls.

 

Here is a picture of the back of the unit.

I was hoping I would be able to purchase ICT-29-674 cable and plug it in making everything dandy, but I'm sure this is not the case.

 

Can anyone advise?

Looks ok to me, front and rear RCA's, can't see a seperate sub one but there must be one

 

You will need a loom and a steering control adapter and then a lot of splicing

Hi, the seller on ebay has said there are 4 pre-outs but there isnt a dedicated subwoofer pre-out.

 

Would this matter?

 

So in theory I'd just need this... http://incartec.co.uk/nissan/1929/1034/2055/78/Browser.aspx and a lot of splicing the wires?

Or this headunit...

That one looks complete cack mate

 

If you want all in one you have to spend the cash unfortunately.... I would rather buy a 'decent' HeadUnit without nav than a not so good all in one.....

I just want something that looks as OE as possible.

 

I really hate the glitzy @*!# they make these days. I wouldnt mind something like a becker single din but that would no doubt be a nightmare to sort.

 

If I could get the Bose in mine to work I'd keep that and do an ipod hack, however reading about all the problems I'd hate to spend the money on it only for it to break again!

I'm not into flash ones either, with flashing lights and equalises : surrender:

 

Pioneer do some nice understated DD ones

 

The DD you linked to is a generic chinese copy that does everything but pretty much all badly...

I'll keep looking I guess then!
