Mk 1 cupra stereo

[cuprabod]

Hi,do all mk1 cupras have the stereo with the cassette or do the the later cars have a different system

 

[af1]

mine had a cd player!

 

[Pabs]

early models, up to 03 plate, had cassette, with a CD changer.
Later models had single CD, most with a CD changer as well.


EDIT: it is a bit hit-and-miss between 03 -> 54 plates - could be either.

My 04 plate has a cassette player with 6CD changer

mine has as well

 

[cuprabod]

I have the one with the cassette, is there a more up to date system that will work with the cd autochanger?

 

[cuprabod]

If it's the Seat Aura system with the cassette that you have, then this will work with the auto changer (which fits in the glovebox), that's what I have (and what's fitted to the early Cupras).

Yes i have this system with the autochanger,i am looking to update but i would still like to use the autochanger if poss.

 

[mike2926]

the auto changer wont work with anything except the seat heat units that it came with (either CD or CD cassette units)

it would be nice if you could by a different one and still us the standard CD changer.

oh well

cheers

 

[cuprabod]

Ok,thanks anyway

 

[cuprabod]

Just a quick one,will the autochanger work with the single cd unit on later mk i cupras?

Seems like mines the only one thats different! Mines a mk1 x plate leon cupra and has the 6 disc changer with the built in screen/sat nav with the disc reader for the sat nav disc

 

[mike2926]

i forgot to mention that

it was an optional extra to have a double din sat nav screen that works with the cd changer



cheers

 

[mike2926]

Yeah, that's the option Pabs mentioned above. It came on later Cupras/FRs as standard (somewhere around 54/05 I think).

yeah the last of the 1m's came with them as standard.

cheers

 

[Essexcupra]

Cheers for that. Sorry to hi jack the thread but my double din screen has the option to have tv/dvd but it wont actually let me choose it. Anyone got any ideas how this can be set up to work?

 

[mike2926]

i think this will have to be done at seat (in the set up menu). you will also need a dvd changer, a tv antena setup and all of the other stuff to go along with it.

id say it would cost a lot.

this is the what need to be done with mercs so i would presume the same in seats.

cheers

 

[Essexcupra]

Cheers mike

 

[mike2926]

no worries

 

[cuprabod]

So does the
seat cd head unit conect the same way as the one with the cassette and does it have the controls to work the autochanger?

 

[mike2926]

i believe so yes although as i have the one with the tape i cannot be 100%. someone else maybe able to jump in here and give a definitive yes or no.

cheers
