Title: New Sony XAV-AX100 Headunit Questions
Post by: TheBALDpuma on November 24, 2017, 12:42:42 pm

I've found these at a great price and I think for a simple Android Auto enabled aftermarker stereo, for £279 you can't really go wrong!

Few questions....

caraudiodirect.co.uk..... anyone used these guys? thoughts?

Do I need any kind of fascia?

Do I need any extra cabling that doesn't come in the box?

You will definitely need a Fascia and I think you will need the wiring aswell which should be available from them, you could call them up and confirm what you will need?

That lead is either for the steering wheel functions or for not adding the ignition live wire.
I changed my head unit to a pioneer AVH-P4200DVD and that lead came with mine.
