I thought these looked interesting and possibly worth the extortionate price for an ‘ultimate defender’ kinda build- but having no pre-outs is kinda lame. Even the factory Alpine has one and I’ve changed mine to get more pre outs to run speakers more easily via amplifiers. 2014 Keswick Utility 2.2

I wonder what happens if you had one fitted in a vehicle and it broke?

Thanks for you £800, but we don’t do it any longer Shocked

Well this is sad news. Given this situation, what would be a good single DIN alternative then?

I thought about one of those flip out screen things, but decided I didn’t want to lose access to the switches above so I went with the JVC.

Just seen a post on Instagram by Charles 'Twisted' Fawcett and it looks as if they may be fitting these JLR single din units* in some of their vehicles

*well, at least that's what I think it looks like. Maybe he has cleared JLR of their stock?

Just to restart this thread, I bought one at a decent discount and fitted this week. This is the Kramer unit as made for various OEM's.

It came with the standard two ISO plugs rather than one that links to the main grey block. Anyway Mudstuff to the rescue with a quick 24hr delivery of an adaptor lead. It was pain to tuck all the connector blocks, GPS receiver, Microphone out of the way with no room for fingers behind - but thats not unique to this unit.

It really does look good, quality of controls is excellent. It's great to have DAB, and can USB or BT stream from my phone, calls are fine and phone book transfer was quick.

Thorny subject of screen size - I find the graphics absolutely fine, large font for radio/music and phone and most of the operations can be either touch screen or from the turn and select RH knob. Nav is a bit small but perfectly useable, partic if you have voice commands on too

One downside is that there is no sub- Dog output, so I need to get a splitter box, to revive the Alpine sub-dog
Overall pretty happy Very Happy

Is this the adaptor needed to fit the JLR Classic unit???

Is anyone selling these at a reasonable price at the moment? What would be needed to integrate the LR alpine sun to it?

Cheers
Col
