Fitting an Alpine CDA 9812 RB into a 54 Meg Dynamique 1.6VVT

Postby coxeymcqueen » Tue Jan 08, 2008 8:55 pm

Haven't picked my Megane up yet but I'm thinking of putting the above mentioned HU in to it - thought now would be the best time to ask my first question (and the 2nd fo that matter).

Question 1
Should I bother? I haven't obviously given the standard HU much of a try out but I assume my Alpine HU will be miles better...

Question 2
I know I need some kind of adapters to make the steering controls work but will the head unit work with the display too?

Thanks folks!

Q1 - Dont bother. Even the shittest 50yr old alpine willbe much better then the standard system

Q2 - Probably not
Black Megane - Black Tints - Black 18" Rims with Chrome - Angel Eyes - Shark Fin - Tail Fins - Kenwood DNX7200 - ipod Video -Hertz Space 6.5" Components - PG Ti500.4 - MTX 9544-15" Sub - Orion D5000 - Audison Cabling - Optima Power = NICE

If the original headunit is marked TunerList then you can get an Alpine adapter for the display and stalk controls.

on a 54 plate you can't use the display but can use the stalk controls with an adapter as i bought the ida-x100 for my 225 and there is nothing out there
