Hi Guys

When i got my surf it had a rather large hole where the stereo should be, so , after mucher ebay hunting i got an original toyota japanese double din unit for not a lot of cash. After installing it and fm radio expander all i can get is radio 2!! Radio 1 fades in and out but is very crackly and it picks up no other signals at all! any ideas anyone?? wogan is driving me mad!

Buy a UK spec radio and either a blanking plate, or a cubby box!

buy a band expander, you will be able to get all the channels but the frequencys will be wrong. only a couple of quid off delbay

Dont bother with the frequency expander they are useless unless you live under the transmitter... The signal to noise is ****

My mates GT4 works perfectly with a 10 quid ebay band expander, good reception but as has been said, the numbers on the display don't necessarily mirror the frequency that is being received.

Some band expanders shift it at different levels, I have tried a couple of makes and the one that I have now is good for this area.
