Hello, I have a Peugeot 207 SE 2007 and would like to upgrade its existing car stereo. It’s a single cd fm/am radio and I would like to get something that has dab+ and the ability to play music and podcasts from my Apple iPhone (I believe this is called CarPlay.) Do you know which single unit I...

I have a 2016 Ram 1500 and I'm looking to upgrade the head unit. The stock radio is the base model, I think it's called a 3.0. It has no bluetooth, no steering wheel controls, no touchscreen, etc. The main things I'm wanting out of a new head unit is bluetooth and preamp outputs. I want to...

In just installed these yesterday, everything went well with the installation. I got the plates and 1" spacers so they would fit in the 6X8 factory holes.
