Aftermarket Bluetooth CD player

Is it possible to take out the standard CD/Radio from a D3 and replace it with an aftermarket CD player with Bluetooth ?

I've seen a number of kits available for DIN or Double DIN for the D3. Just remember if you have things like voice commands, bluetooth or higher audio levels with the amps you may or may not lose some functionality or need to adjust the adaptor looms.

If you have a HSE with rear audio for example, those will stop working I think. If you're on a base spec car it might not be an issue though.

If you can't be a good example, at least be a horrible warning.

Thanks Cyberprog for the advice.
My disco is a GS model, do you think there will be anything to change ?

I don't think so, if it's reasonably base spec then you should be OK.

if it's a baseline stereo then it will be easier to do than if it was a highline unit Thumbs Up

It is a single CD unit so I am hoping it will be hassle free to change !

Thanks for the help

Are you thinking of going to single din, or double din? You could easily drop in a nice high spec double din unit into that - or a android unit with bluetooth handsfree built in.

I am not sure yet, I have been looking at the android units, they seem to be a reasonable price and look quite nice.

Yeah, I have seen a few cheap ones with no brand, but I have been looking at Sony and alpine ones so far Thumbs Up
