  • help upgrading 2011 SRI nav cd 500 to dab & bluetooth

    2011 sri nav... My car has the shark fin aerial, but only CD 500 navi with no bluetooth or DAB - is there any kind of upgrades I can do using a new VX head unit that covers it all, or am I better off buying a bluetooth/dab adapter like the PURE 600 (or another variety you can recommend?)

    Someone else is in the same position as you.

      I have the Pure 600. Just fitted it today. It’s really good and the cheapest option for £150.

      Retro fitting factory DAB Bluetooth can be done at a cost of around £700 odd.

      You can go aftermarket too. All depends on your budget.



      This the little control unit that comes with the pure highway.

        Ah great thanks - does it have to go through the back of the head unit or can it connect via a front facing connection?

          There’s a little box with the antenna that sits on the top left of the windscreen.

          I’ve routed the cables along the pillar, down under the passenger seat and into the arm rest where it connects to the usb and aux socket for power and sound.

          The control unit is wireless and can be put anywhere.
