We have this Radio in stock, it is available with either the correct faceplate to mount it in the factory location, or as the other pic shows, with brackets, so you can hide it somewhere, and use it via remote. Has USB & SD card inputs, as well as 1 Aux plugs.

We also have a new unit, later this year, with Bluetooth and iPod control. Slightly smaller inbuilt amp, but has a sub output, as well as the front/rear RCA's that this has, for easier amp connections. this new unit will also have the option to remote mount the face plate somewhere, console, sunvisor, anywhere you can put just the faceplate.

These units are tiny! very easy to hide!

You can also get bluetooth speakers in a single unit that you can place in the car and stream the music from your mobile phone through then take the speakers out when you get home.  The ones I've got are Blue ant bluesonic. They also work with your PC or laptop and your mobile calls also go through them.

I've got a remote stereo and amp mounted in the boot, under the parcel tray (not in my fastback). It works well and that way I still have a glovebox.

I have just fitted a Memphis Marine unit, which is a black box fitted behind the glove box. It has a wired contoler which I have located on the consul/transmission tunnel. Awesome, highly recomended. Purchased through Soundesign.

I use these guys for all my Audio installs, they do great work.

Phatt Audio Concepts http://www.phattaudio.com.au/

We have some great, thin speakers, or, if there is room, they will be able to suggest something better.

If you are interested, send me your number, and I will get the owner to call you.

the unit shown, is $330
