the other was from my dynamique, which didnt have nav, this 182 does though, i think they are different because the dealer fit them not at the factory.

I was told the vdo dayton unit it better quality too, not sure if this is true?

The stock CD changer is I think Philips but Renault might change when they get them cheaper.

Aftermarket ones ie not added at the factory but ordered with the car and fitted at the dealers the dealers are given a choice and so go to the cheapest one they can buy. Mines an Alpine one.

thought alpine ones were factory fitted and vdo dayton are the ones dealers opt to use? thats what my dealer said anyway.
