I dont know about sound quality but this has excellent features - http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/sony-mex-bt3100u-cd-mp3-usb-player-with-bluetooth
The one in the link above should be fine, you really do get what you pay for with head units so if you if you want the best then this - http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/head-units/cd-players/pioneer-deh-80prs is a good shout, but obviously not cheap.

Allows you to use the steering controls for the head unit.

What make is your headunit?
And that one lead will let me retain my steering wheel controls? Wtf do you fit it all behind the dash! I struggled getting head unit in alone!
Yep, but test it before you go shoving it all back in, the little yellow plug isn't the tightest fit (or wasn't on mine anyway).
Little tip, pull your hazard strip out, unplug all the switches and use that space to pull and shove wires to the side. I found that the hazard switch wires caught on the top left of the headunit, stopping it going all the way back. That's the easiest way without removing the dash top.
No worries. It brings back all of them, both source buttons, skip track roller and the volume buttons. Not sure if you know but if you press both volume buttons it halves the volume, or at least does on mine. I think it's for taking phone calls, which you can't do anyway lol.
Oh, and on your center dash display it will say renault, just in case you forget what you're driving.

Whered you get this from mate?
Purchased and doesn't work!
That's the one I've got and it works fine. Have you made sure everything is plugged in properly? Is the little yellow block plugged into the right pins?
appears to be but i get nothing!! do i have to plug in a certain order? how can i get the yellow block wrong?
I'll have a look at mine tomorrow and take a pic of the yellow block, I couldn't get mine to work and my mate who works in car audio had it working in a matter of seconds.
It was literally just a case of plugging the yellow block in correctly, I'll get you a pic later

Thanks dude

Same as ^^ I ordered the same from the link above for my DEH X6600DAB. It doesn't work either had the yellow plug in and out. Plugged in HU 3.5mm end first as per instructions still nothing. Fitted standard HU back and that's fine.
Have sent mind back and wondering if should give this a go as it has it's own yellow plug.

Last time I changed one on a Alpine about 5 years ago it went straight into a plug and not that module thing with patch lead.

Just tried yellow block again -Really cannot seem to get it working
I just tried to get mine out and there's no chance, the block is stuck down behind the cage somewhere. Can you get a pic of where you're plugging your block into?
