Will an Eurovox stacker work in the base model D2 that only came with cassette and 4 speaker? I don't have the amplifier under the seat so was wandering if it would work, becuase there are a lot of wires under the drivers seat where the stacker is meant to go.

Cheers

Hendrik,

The answer is yes. I fitted one to my 99 D2 which had the basic sound system. I have since replaced the whole audio system so I no longer use it, but it did work fine. You will need the connecting cable as well as the stacker, since it was not included in the basic loom.

Cheers,
Terry

The bad news is there was a one 4 one deal with the genuine stackers,, one cable for one stacker. no extras/spares.
AFAIK.

Hi, this is a genuine Eurovox stacker which will work on a base Series 2 Disco cassette player. The cable from the stacker plugs straight into the back of the cassette radio. The buttons on the radio facia control the stacker - plug & play. I have tested this unit (out of a 2002 model) in my 1999 D2 and it works.

Bundalene, how does the lead run to the head unit, is it via the roof and then down the A-pillar then under the dash? Your help would be much appreciated.

The stacker goes under the drivers seat ................why would you run the lead via the roof ???????

Run it under the carpet/centre console - then up underneath the dash to the head

Hendrik, Ive got a stacker that I'm no longer using. Plus the radio cassette player that it plugged into.
I found it tended to skip a bit much for my liking and the wife didn't like the idea of having to stop, get out and re move the cassette, to load it to play a CD.
If you want it or both, PM me and we can work out some sort of a deal.
Peter.

My 99 had a Sony 10 stacker under the seat with a Europox i mean Eurovox FM interface that lead into the aerial. Then it had some other controller to control the stacker. I dont know if this was standard or not. I pulled it out as soon as I got it home (it was quite messy) & have since replaced the whole system & speakers.

not hijacking your thread man but the space in the dash for the head unit isnt a standard size so how do i go about replacing the head unit without it looking gam

Yep sure is :)

it is only the Face plate that is not "standard" on the factory Alpine units. The actual "body" of the stereo is DIN size.

Heres the factory DIN size Nav Unit I fitted to mine. All you need is the small trim "finisher" to clip in and cover the small gap at the bottom.;)

This is a standard part of the Series2 Disco dash tucked away under the radio. The trim hides some screws.
