    Stereo Question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I've searched and couldn't find an answer.

    My question is i've got the "Concert" series radio/cd player in my car which is ugly and peeling.

    I want to replace it with the Symphony II+. I've read a lot of posts about replacing the Symphony II with the II+ but never replacing the Concert series. Can this be done and is there a write up somewhere or a list of parts i will need.

    i think it should be plug and play in the back, since its all OEM... i think you'll need a new harness that will accept the at least double din stereo and movement of the AC controls

    So even though i'm going from the Concert to Symphony II+ just buy the Symphony II to Symphony II+ adapter without BOSE and that should work for the Concert model?

    Is this the adapter i should buy ?

    How difficult is it to move the AC Controls i'm guessing it wouldn't be to much of a hassle to slide them down a few inches.

    damn really? i didn't realize you would need a different climate control unit thought you could just move the old one down. Are you sure about that?

    Re: Stereo Question

    You're right. There are lots of info on Symphony's, but none on Concerts. I'm ok with the Concert if I can connect the Ipod adapter from ECS to it. Does anyone know if it will plug n play w/ a Concert?
