This ex police astra J is doing my head in, I bought a reset radio off ebay which wouldn't communicate with MDI in the car for some reason so had to send it back, now I started looking at connect2 again and realised I need steering controls for it which I don't have, so yet again im stuck with it and the car is driving me mad, stupid Vauxhall want £500 for a brand new radio fitted, I found someone on here selling one but there 200mile away and still quoting me near 300 for it, anyone any ideas?

Anyone got a spare one of these

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie to Vauxhall's and so far am loving it!!

About to go and attempt to fit my sub , just wondering if I'm taking the radio out, after putting it back in will I need to enter the radio code, as I don't have it yet, (need to ring the dealer)

Hey guys,

Let's get this part of the forum christened! So my mum is daft and managed to explode a bottle of water in her car and now her car radio doesn't work properly!

Hi All, 

I'm having a problem whit installing a Android radio in my Astra J (2011) instead of my original radio CD500 (whit navigation).

I'm after a real cheap set of Mokka radio controls only want the power button and I refuse to pay £70 for a set, so if anyone sees a cheap set pop up can post a link here. Pic for reference.

Hello guys.

New guy here.
I've been browsing this forum and I see you guys know your stuff pretty well. 
I own an Astra J 2011 ST with the stock CD 400 radio, which is basically crap and am thinking of upgrading it to some sort of Android radio or something cooler than this pile of junk.

Can you please recommend me a good solution that actually works well? That all the nobs still work? Internet is full of misleading info on that stuff and half of the time half of the buttons on
