I have just got my UK 03 S2000 and the headunit isn't working as it needs the code. I have checked my documents and their is no reference to the code. Is there anyway of getting the code?

Or should I just replace the headunit with an Alpine unit. If I go for this option what extra kit do I need to connect to the dash controls?

 

IIRC you need a KCE-856B ....... or something or other. (It is in my sig)

(Edit: I got it right)

 

yup get an alpine unit - much better - you can get adapters to make the controls work - btu mst admit i did nt bother - its no more hassel using the ones on the unit !

 

the alpine DCI is discontinued. Buy the Modifry, it's a bit more expensive but it's better

 

Don't feel compelled to go Alpine.

Weight it up for what you want.

For me, I hate Apple, so I don't have an ipod.

I bought the JVC AVX-11 (

 

yup good point do you need ipod or not ??? if not then you can get good aux units from

 

I am not too bothered by ipod connection. Just want to go for easiest upgrade.

 

That will be Alpine (If you want to keep the dash controls).

 

Alpine also use usb, they are not just ipod ready!

 

I popped into Halfords this afternoon and some of the Alpine's stated that they would be able to use Steering Wheel Controls. Do these still need an additional KCE-856b connector? There was one in Halfords to ask!
