Hi, I am new to this forum, I have recently purchased an alphard 2008 model, the original head set is still in the car. However it does not appear to be working at all (no power)?
I am living in Essex near London would really appreciate all of you fellow alphard owners giving me some tips please 

thank you kindly in advance

      Any double din unit should go in physically without much trouble as they're a standard size. The tricky bit is the wiring. At the very least you need an ISO wiring loom/adaptor, but you don't want to

      My channel name is cuttothechase.  Have a look at this head unit. It cost about 140 pounds from aliexpress and was plug and play.

      To get the steering wheel controls working you can replace your current wiring with Connect2 Adaptor https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/373176086232    It's all based on the sockets, simply plug in.

    Hi Rob

     

    I have a 2008 model purchased in Aug last year and am in Essex too- the radio unit was the original in Japanese only so got it replaced  - went to Audifile Incar in Bishops Stortford and got an ALPINE unit - they fitted it expertly to work with all steering wheel controls and rear camera too. Not cheap but in my opinion well worth it - got Apple carplay etc too.

     

    Happy to let you have a look if near Braintree area - let me know
