Well, got my Daughter this for Christmas and still not fitted (it doesn't help that she's 70miles from me.
Halfords told her at Swindon that this radio cannot be fitted to a 206cc but you can to a 206???
It's a

Pioneer DEH-X8700DAB Car Stereo Item Code:145791

Autoleads Harness Adaptor ISO to ISO+ PC2-32-4 Item Code:240692

Autoleads DAB Film Antenna SMB - DAB-AA1 Item Code:338357

Don't know if it's the harness adapter at fault and wiring not quite right as surely the radios fit everything

Thanks in advance for any help....

I wouldn't trust Halfords with my lawn mower, let alone my car.
I have a mate who is an MOT tester, and he says he has never failed so many cars on beam pattern since Halfords started fitting bulbs

Why should the beam change because of replacing a bulb?

Because they don't locate bulb properly. Most bulbs have location tabs, and if you get these the wrong way around, or slightly off, the bulb sits a bit cocked and changes focal length of bulb.
It's common sense really.
It's the same with wiper blades. I've seen them fit ones with *spoilers* upside down so the spoiler is trying to lift rather than hold blade against screen.
Cheers Col.

Right nearly done this after having the car for a few hours.
Only problem now is finding the harness that plugs into the steering controls as the new harness I have will allow her to use the stork switches.
Can't find it anywhere.............
