Yep.

 

What he said...

 

For sure. But it will not plug directly into your factory harnesses without ordering a harness from Crutchfield.

 

Only thing I would consider is getting a black colored unit if your interiors are dark, otherwise the unit will stand out too much. ask me how I know...

 

If you have extra money to throw away...

The harness that comes with the deck may not even have ends (connectors) on it anyway... Just go to your local electronic parts store and get some spade connectors and crimp them on (with a crimp tool -- under $5 from a good parts store).

 

THANKS GUYS!


I think I'll just do some crimping with the wires like koolbeenz said.


The cheapest I could find from an "autherized Blaupunkt Internet Dealer" was from SoundDomain.com at $134.95.

This doesn't sound too bad. $105.99 on eBay. Plus you get the remote and some free speakers. I doubt it's that risky since the seller has so much positive feedback.

For the money this little radio doesn't seem to bad at all.

 

Sounds good... Crimp the connectors on super hard and give each a tug when you are done to make sure they are on... When you buy the connectors make sure you have the right ones (they come in different sizes). Prob around 16-18 GA is what you need... Smaller is better as long as you can still fit the wire (each strand) in the connector because then it will be a tighter fit and stay on better.

 

Frys was selling a refurbished 180 watt unit, name brand, for $67

 

I've bought car audio equipment from Sound Domain and off eBay, and have been happy with purchases from both. The most recent unit I bought was a Pioneer which I bought from Bay Stereo

No association with them, but their price on the unit was the lowest and they had really fast order processing and shipping. For reference I bought the Pioneer DEH-P2500 and I really like it. Fits just right into the DIN sized space you have.

I haven't been too happy with the Blaupunkt Honolulu that I purchased two years ago. It has broken down twice. Once I ended up ordering a new faceplate, the second time I had to send the head unit in for repair. I've paid $160 for repairs to a unit I paid about $160 for new.

Search the terms "Blaupunkt Honolulu" and you'll find a thread that I posted. From the responses I got, you will see I'm not the only one who is somewhat down on Blaupunkt.

On the up-side, I like the looks, features, and sound of my Blaupunkt--when it works.

 

I'm glad you said something. ..And that was a very interesting post. The only reason I was going with Blaupunkt was that's what origionaly came with the car, but I've never really been all that fond of them. My favorite is Sony, but I'm going to shop around for other name brands as well now in the sub $150 range.
