  • Retro, yet modern headunits?

    I really like the idea of having a retro headunit in my MK1, but I want all the modern functionability of a new one i.e aux, bluetooth etc.

    I quickly searched ebay and the only one I found was $5000 used - BECKER 7948 RETRO MEXICO CLASSIC NAVIGATION BLUETOOTH MP3 PHONE HEAD UNIT | eBay

    It's awesome - but I don't want to spend my entire budget for parts on just the radio!

    Any other products out there at a reasonable price? It looks sooooo good!

    Edit:

    Now found this one which is considerably cheaper - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Camper-...item5897964ea7

    Any better products out there?

        Becker are hard to beat for pure sound quality. FHRX Studios can source them if you're interested. Pretty sure they used to be standard fitment on Porche vehicles.
