Hi A collegue at work has a P2 V70 with a fooked CD player. So what are the options? He has found one on ebay, a HU803. Is it a direct replacement or does he need to stick to the 603. Also, is ebay a good bet, or is somewhere like salvo better?? Any advice appreciated. Cheers Andrew
Ebay you vcan get some bargains,your mate needs to be careful as some Headunits are mated to car chassis,The 603 is non software driven so can go into anything.
Go aftermarket, the output is much better, also you can look to do a sub install with one.

It only has a small internal one for the Dolby centre speaker in the dash.

So, the 803 is out. After market is not a route he wants to go - so 603 from Salvo maybe?
