Wanted: radio fixing cage.

don simon · 08-04-2018, 20:23

I'm in the process of installing a DAB radio into the truck as I've had enough of rubbish music.
The old radio and cage are out, but there is a stubborn screw that won't budge and is apparently made of cheese.
So I'm looking for a cage for a radio for a Terrano that has the seperate hazard light switch.
Has anyone got one going spare that they'd exchange for money?

I only have the experience of DAB in new Mercs and TBH the DAB upgrade is expensive and often useless in the Derby/Ashbourne areas hope you are in a good signal area when on the move.

My house DAB radio is better but I had to install a decent indoor antenna to get more than a handful of channels.

Not really a problem I don't think as I get good coverage right up to the Lake District and a few pockets in North Wales. DAB is really just one of several features that I was looking for, USB connectivity for my music storage and Bluetooth for handsfree.

No offers?

Tdoug built a neat radio surround panel. Think posted details and photos somewhere on here.
