J90 Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 Hi,I'm picking up my new Lupo Gti on Saturday border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />But I don't know what it will look like in the Lupo. So I was wondering if anyone had pictures of any other headunits installed in their Lupo's??? Just so I can see what they look like.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibb1982 Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 The Alpine 7894Rb looks good inside my loop the blue matches the dials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J90 Posted March 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 Picked up the Lupo today, and the Pioneer slotted in well (for now).Sounds like ALPINE CDA 7894RB is worth a look, thanks for the replies style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyB Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Standard GTI ones, sound much better with a new Headunit. I'm in no rush to change them ATM, they're not bad at all for OEM stuff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in no rush to change them ATM, they're not bad at all for OEM stuff...I'm impressed with the standard ones as well, since the new head unit has gone it. They sound very good for OEM speakers.

Alan VW Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 I have had Kenwood, Sony, Poineer, Panasonic, Blaupunkt & Alpine headunits.... For Value for money Kenwood & Sony r very good. thou i found for the same money that the amplifer in the sony was a tad better than the kenwood. Panasonic , - it was the one of the dearer ones of the time, 4*60w dunno about... ??? Blaupunkt.... lol style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> And Alpine... aww is all i can say what a headunit! I have been tempted to try Nakamichi - but the look of them just put me off, thats the top end of the headunits thou... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andi Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 i,ve got a kenwood 3021 head unit it was only £99 and lights up red to match the arosa's dials, so if i had a lupo i would probably go for a headunit which lights up blue. STYLE OVER SOUND. :thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
