<b>d_182 </b> - where have you routed the cable mate? I;ve got the exact same setup as you and I've got it going trhough a gap in the cup holders. Also, how did you attach the dension cradle to the brodit proclip? I screwed mine which meant the threads stick out the back of the clip...

I got the Dension kit about a 6 months ago for my 182 - cost me £150 including the clip to mount it on the dash. Very expensive but it does work. I tend to find that I don't use the stalk controls as I prefer to use the normal iPod interface allowing me to browse all the tracks I have. I'm...

A variant of that connects2 adaptor is actually used in the Dension kit for Renaults. I recently bought a Dension kit for my 182 and am planning on doing a write up for this site on what it is, how it works and how to install it etc. What this space...!

When upgrading the standard HU is it worth also doing upgrading the speakers as well? Do many after market HUs work with the stalk controls and display sceen?

I love the 182 but I just fancy something a bit more refined and with better build quality. The Civic Type R is an option as well - although I think Im swaying for the Leon. Hopefully Ill get a test drive tomorrow...

Ive got an 04 plate Clio 182 with cup spoiler & suspension. Its done 11k - what could I expect for part ex at a dealer? (Im thinking of trading up to a Leon Cupra R....)

you can actually over burn some cds and fit up to 900mb on them. Even so, 900mb of mp3s on a cd wouldnt play in a standard HU.

Ive been looking at that Denison kit and Im not *too* fussed about the track controls.... I dont really want to pay £130 + ipod holder + fitting. Like I said, ideally I just want to use the CD changer interface as an AUX-in. Ive spoken to my local dealer and they wont sell me the cable on its...

Im not sure who manufactures the Cabasse HU. I might try & pull it back and see what is written on the back... Ive just got a new iPod that Im keen to hook up in my car. :D

Hopefully somebody can help with this question.... Ive got an Clio 182 and want to know if I can get a cable that plugs into the CD changer input on the back of the standard Carbasse headunit and has a female line input on the other end. Does such a thing exist!?! (and if so where can I get...

Ive just borrowed a mates itrip and had a play and Im not that impressed really.... I tried a track on from a cd then the same one from the ipod. Bad mistake really I think... As for getting a line input to the HU using the CD changer input - surely this must be possible? The denison kit is...

Are you saying that the Denison kit will not fit to the 182 Cabasse player then? I just presumed it was just a variant of the VDO or Philips players and would still be compatible. Im getting my ipod on saturday and after hearing a mates itrip in action, I think I might just spend £30 on...

I guess so - the text doesnt scroll so if anything is displayed then it will only be a truncated artist/song name so we wouldnt be missing much. Ive been looking at the itrips but from what Ive read the sound quality is not that great (in as much that switching from a CD to the radio does mean...

Cheers for the link mate - theres lots of info and pics on there. As for getting the ID3 tags to be displayed on a Renault radio - I doubt it..! Im getting my ipod next week and will seriously be tempted to get one these babies.
