Cheers

iam talking about the standard head unit, mines gone a bit doggy and have found a new one off eBay, but its from a facelift model. Just wanted to know if it will work

Have a look at the shape of the curve on the front, if it looks the same sort of shape, then it should fit.

Can't see why they would change it, just cause they done a facelift to the car on the exterior, wouldn't of thought they would change the interior that much

The radio will physically fit into the hole,

but the problem is the pre facelift had different plugs to the facelift,

to elaborate a bit further, the speaker, aerial and power cables are the same but the plug for the trip computer is different.

Therefore it will function like a radio but you won't have steering wheel controls or the trip computer.

There are ways around this problem but i wouldn't suggest doing it! They involve soldering.
