Upgrade of stock head unit
Hello,
Honda have confirmed that the current unit in my 2004 s2000 is made by alpine. I want to upgrade the head unit to one that plays mp3's. Would it be possible to do a straght swap with the standard unit to an upgraded alpine and not have to get a converter for the driver controls.
Cheers

I don't know who you talked to at Honda, but you were misinformed.
The MY04 stock head unit is made by Clarion, and no you cannot install a new head unit and maintain use of the stock controls without an additional solution/converter of some sort.
:edit: I didn't see you were across the pond. I guess it is possible that your '04 still has the Alpine????? I still believe that you would require a converter to use the dash controls with an aftermarket head unit, Alpine or not.
