Thanks in advance for any info.

I had a Dension 400 fitted to my Octy. It kept the CD changer and worked off the steering wheel buttons too. Plus you can plug a 3.5mm jack into it and also use a USB flash drive with mp3s.

I think it was about £250 fitted. It was the most comprehensive one out there at the time of fitting. The best bit was you kept your CD changer, although the USB facility is quite neat, especially as they are getting really big capacities nowadays.

The Dension Gateway 300 is a bit cheaper I think and doesn’t have the CD capability, but has all the other goodies.

I think the gateway models cost a bit more because you get the 3.5mm and USB I/Ps

DIY job to fit if you've got radio removal keys, otherwise you shouldn't have to pay more than about £20 to get it fitted - 10 minute job for a pro. If you're not bothered about having a 3.5mm jack and a USB port, and you just want to hook up your iPod to the head unit, this is all you need.
