Accessories For Maruti 800

[350Z]

Today I checked base HUs of both the brands, Sony as well as Pioneer. Both the models are available at almost same cost and along with a warranty. However, I didn't liked the looks of Pioneer, it was looking somewhat cheaper than it is. So, at last I've decided on the Sony Head unit, model no CDX GT 290 or 292. Check this link for details: CDX-GT292 : Xplod CD Receiver : In-Car Entertainment : Sony India

I'll probably get the installation done by tomorrow. I'm really a no expert when it comes to ICE et all. So some accessory guys like ilango, Raj (if available) let me know your views about this product and what all should be taken care while installation asap.

You love Sony, isn't it?

 

[350Z]

Ha! Not actually. But still I'm inclined towards it because as I told the Pioneer HU was looking really cheap like a cassette player. I don't remember its model number.

Couriering is fine but who will install the HU?? It'll almost cost same as purchasing one directly from here and Yes, Please do let me know the approx price asap because I've confirmed with dealer to install 290/290 HU by tomorrow.

I mean south india!

In any unit max i can less is about 500 to 800 , depending upon the model + front 4 incher at 40% discount

 

[350Z]

That's fine but a seperate installation will be an issue and I do have the Sony Xplod speakers installed already. BTW, Any specific reasons for not recommending the CDX GT 290 or 292 model?

[ilango[speed thirst]]

No such reason , 292 is without usb and 494 cost just a little more !

 

[350Z]

Ok, Let me know the approx. price of model which you suggested by tomorrow if possible otherwise I'll go ahead with the 292 and I intentionally didn't selected the one with USB slot.

[cooldhaya]

But i guess you would have installed by now!!

 

[350Z]

Yes, I've got it installed and here's the picture.
