BMW Mini Cabriolet gets a fresh new stereo

The request from this BMW Mini owner was to replace the factory CD player with a touch screen DVD system.  The only issue we faced was the dashboard of the Mini overhangs the radio location quite a bit, so the only option for a screen was the latest Kenwood unit, a KVT-627DVD.  We used this model as it has a motorised mechanism called the ‘Z-mech’ which is basically how it motorises out of it’s housing.  This mechanism allows the screen to fully motorise out before it flips up and then it can slide further out or in depending on the dashboard layout.  If we used any other screen on this car the viewing angle would have been terrible and not fulfilled the customers requirements.

Testimonials

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to yourself and your team on the fantastic job you did on my BMW 1 series. Initially I was stunned by what you guys had managed to achieve using a standard head unit. The sound quality is awesome, I am hearing things I have never heard in tracks I listen to time and time again. Now that I’ve had some quality listening time the system continues to only impress me. The install of the speakers and amplifier is exceptional to say the least. In line with the high level of standards you guys install to and combining this with the excellent customer service Source Sounds provide, I can only applaud you for the operation you guys have there. Thanks again (from a very happy customer)

A few niggles at first that were not the fault of Source Sounds. But even though it wasn’t their fault, they spent hours trying to resolve the issues created by my vehicle being electric. I could not recommend the service level of this company any higher, their product knowledge is second to none, have all the gear right there in the shop, and will fit you in as soon as … where else do you find that these days!!

We traveled from Rotherham to get these guys to fit some reversing sensors to my wife’s car, I’d been before and they were very professional for both alarms and a radio on my van and this time as before they were brilliant. The work was completed ahead of time and one of the guys came out and spent 10 minutes explaining EXACTLY how parking sensors worked which was great as I hadn’t a clue. We are very pleased with both the professionalism of the people and the work in which they do. Perfect!!! Many, many thanks for such a great company.
