Spent ages trying to get mine to work till I watched this video didn’t know you have to change wires so went out changed them finally working thanks
Hi, Yes No problem. You will need the fascia panel DFP-17-00 - However, the height of this fascia is 103mm, most pioneers are 113mm so you will need to get the cage pack which I believe is DFPK-17-00 :)
The clips we lock in place lock themselves around the fascia that is installed. The fascia itself clips itself in therefore locking the cage to it keeping it secure. In terms of the radio, this locks into the cage therefore the radio doesn't move.
Thanks for posting this video as it saved me money because I was able to install my new stereo all on my own
You will have to purchase it from the main dealer or from ebay. You can add a Aux cable through a CD changer output in the rear. Most corsa don't have it - so double check.
Speakers are no problem. I believe they are 13cm but double check by removing the door card.
Correct. Unless its the one with the big volume knob in the middle - if so you need to run a ignition fly cable.
Yes,Exactly the same procedure. With steering wheel controls you will have to purchase an extra cable or two. But if you don't mind losing them then just follow this guide.
A lot of people do that! Common mistake! Glad we helped!
Now it looks easy but where do i get the adaptor you're using?
Yes,
AF-119-00
This is on our shop JustAudioShop'com
Its called a FP-19-00 lots of places supply it, have a look on google or your local auto electrical store.
We do try :)
This means the power supply has been reset at some point and it has been locked and needs the CD Code to unlock it (Used for security purposes) you can find the code in the manual or go to your main dealer and pay about £20 or so.
From our shop we have a link in the description.
For 2005-> AH4-185-8
For Pre 2005 its AH4-104-8
We also have bundles available with everything else.
I have a 2003 omega. do i need to buy an additional wiring loom as not sure.
Yes you did a big help of me. I bought second hand car in good condition from someone but inside the card had same dashboard fitting was only radio which i don't like and wanted to install stereo player. I was not getting how to change it now i know.. Thank you for this helpful video
Check your fuses, Might have blown one when fitting it.
If you have a multimeter check the yellow and red cable are getting 12v when the car is powered.
No, Very similar concept.
Most double din installs need the Vauxhall Double Din kit
DFPK-19-00
Can you shed some light on the clips in the new single cage that you put in? where are they what do they clip to?? as well as this what is holding the radio up or does it just float in the space behind the dash? or should i be screwing something into the back wall??
I really hope you still reply to these comments but I have the exact same radio as that one in the video and I don't know which one to buy the single din or the double din
Nice guide, however I bought my Wiring from hal*** and did not change the red and yellow wires over.
however I did buy the steering wheel control cable + patch for the car no other cables were needed, mine is a 03 plate corsa, I do agree with the aerial and taping it up, however I didn't think of that but it is still attached.
good guide overall, but any idea on why I didn't have to switch cables, was it the adaptor I bought being pre done??
I fitted a new radio using this guide (I had a 4 digit blaupunkt) but now the cigarette lighter doesn't work! The radio(s) went out/in clean - is there something obvious I might have damaged? I checked the fuse which is ok. Thanks!
No, It swaps the Ignition and permanent over (Red and Yellow)
Pc2-36-4 is the extension.
Attached the red wire to the cigarette lighter to the black wire, but it isn't a constant live, which means the ignition HAS to be on, and it also resets every time the ignition is off!? Help would be greatly appreciated
out of interest I have now taped the aerial cable on and its noticeably improved the sound, one question though, is there a cable that will allow me to get the radio station to show on the mfd display, half*** don't seem to think there is one.
Nice guide, wanted to try it on my corsa C 2002 but don't got a t20 screwdriver so can't get the screw out of the cage
Any DIY shop will sell.
thanks, soooo much man, this helped me so much, i was trying to fit the facia adapter into the stock thing you bent out at the beginning but this worked, thanks man
i have a question, how is it call this adaptator that you use to plug the cables from the car to the the stereo plug?. Thx
Is the PC2-04-4 cable basically an extension lead? one end of my one plugs into the other, and the red and yellow aren't even swapped
Hi there, do you have a video for vauxhall vectra 2005 model. I am trying to install sony MEX-BT2500 after market stereo. Do I need to swap red and yellow cable ? Do I need to wire the live 12v from cigarette connector ? In my harness connector, I have a red, a orange hanging wire. I understand red has to connect to 12v live supply, where about orange. also I have a blue hanging cable from Aerial adaptor, where should I connect to. Thanks in advance. Cheers
I got mine from Ebay, It came with the Removal keys and the aerial adapter aswell
i just tried to remove my stereo and as you say in the vid, i think the mechanism is broken. any ideas on how to get it out now?
why is the adaptor different in the video than the one he links? why is the end he puts in the radio double the size than the one he links?
i also have an sxi model, also do you know what the additional cable is called pls??
hi im going to install the jvc kw-r400 into a corsa c sxi, and will i need any wire adapters for it as i dont really understand that part
The stereo in my corsa has stopped working and displays 'PANEL' on the display. Do you know how I can fix this?
Hey sorry I bought a corsa 2003 plate few days ago but I can't seem to find the button to turn on the light for the light inside the car? the light inbetween the driver and passengers head? Help please
Hey sorry to be a pest but do you need to have the radio code to do this as I don't?
I'm sure this will help many people, thanks!
Do you pinch that shroud to get it out of you want to reuse it ?
Is the same procedure for an sxi model? because mine has controls on the steering? Thanks.
i have a gls x reg corsa c and it has the 4 digit 20 pin one
i have a 2 digit radio and looking to replace my radio with a pioneer, already bought the wiring harness to convert to ISO, but will i need to still run from the cigarette lighter, and if so how?
Thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed!
Mee to
go to radio-codes.it to find it, and it means if it switches then the power top 20 pin/10 pin connector is loose
My old radio just won't come out. I have all the necessary stuff, and all the things you have shown but it just won't budge. Im completely stuck on what to do.
+wackyrodders316 sounds like its time for the hammer and chisel to come out then
i have a cdr500 radio and it works fine, when the engine is off and the key out the code led starts flashing, could you tell me if this is normal? thank you.
How would I go about taking the radio out again? My car came with a different radio in it rather than stock and I need to put a cable in the back of the radio. Any ideas?
Won't all those cables inside make noise when the vehicle is moving?
Hi I'm having trouble removing the grub screws I can't seem to find anything to unscrew them
I have SPARE PARTS FOR OPEL CORSA C HATCHBACK (F08, F68) 1.2 (F08, F68) PETROL(75 HP, FROM YEAR 2000)... Radio type CAR 2003 But i can't find the radio code please help me.
Hi! Isn't the cage provided with the installation kit? Is it included with the head unit? My new head unit doesn't come with any cage. Do you think my head unit will fit in the panel anyway?
Where can I get A: a replacement radio for my 2005 Corsa Design OR B: how to fit an AUX in for my MP3 player? And C: Can I replace my speakers? because they crackle whenever anything with even the slightest bit of bass comes on the radio.
I have a 4 digit radio. I have installed everything. The radio turns on and off but does not turn off when I turn off the ignition. However when I take out the key it turns off and wont turn back on unless I put the key back in. Is this normal and will it drain my battery ?
What's is the harness called that is used in video and best place to buy from
I got a sony radio for my opel Astra and when fitting it everything went fine but the part where you put the Ariel isn't there it's just a hole that goes in so the Ariel cannot attach to it, do u know what I can do about it?
The radio I bought is supposed to fit into my car, do I still need to buy a new panel/cage for it?
Great video mate, I have a 54 plate corsa and for the life of me I cannot get my radio out to get the number to unlock one in safe mode. If I have pushed them in too far does that mean it is locked for good?
Just a quick question. I have just switched back to the original radio from a Pioneer DEH 45000BT due to selling the car. I have connected the wires back up to the old radio but it doesn't seem to be working. The radio is picked up when I switch it on but none of the buttons are working. Not sure whether I have missed something or I need to switch any wires around at all. Can you help? Cheers!
hi have you done a video or do you know of a decent tutorial of upgrading the standard door speakers on a 2004 vauxhal corsa? Need to know for my sister.. also what size speakers can I put in without changing or adapting the door cards?
SXI use the exactly the same as other corsa's it depends on the stereo models.
2 digit stereo - PC2-85-4
3/4 digit - Follow this guide.
i have a VC 2000 so it's older that yours. will this be a problem? can i just buy any radio?
To keep the memory of the CD Player, Without doing so the car will keep forgetting its Pre Sets and other features (Bluetooth etc)
Alternatively you can purchase the patch cable PC2-04-4
do you need to disconnect the negative terminal to the battery or does this not matter ?
How can you put a pioneer double din stereo in a 2002 corsa?
hi, I have a corsa D and I would like to know if I must switch these 2 cables, red and yellow, can you answer me? My radio is a pioneer..
You need a completely different kit.
Please could you tell me if an after market radio will show up Info in the corsa's dash
No it doesn't

Hi, when you replace the radio do you lose everything on the screen or is it just the radio station name. I only really want the time/date and temp I don't care about the radio station because I just want to get a radio I can connect my phone to.
Is a Stereo, that plays only mono actual a Stereo?
Nice demo man! Made it look really easy! Is that a mex bt3100u? I have same car and radio if so lol. I have one problem though , my wheel audio controls don't work so I guess I need to get the adaptor and patch lead, but how the hell to I get to the steeling wheel audio connections? Thanks in advance mate!

Hey great vid btw my release keys do not fit however you mentioned some special screws that I might have what can I use to unscrew them
I used an Allen key to remove the screws.
You should have an ignition fly cable (red) in that loom, run that to an ignition source :)
thanks mate, great video, appreciate the time you've taken to help us out.
No problem - Glad we helped!

Hi does anyone know the code for a Vauxhall Corsa please for my mum
Thanks for uploading. Now I can put a decent radio into my Corsa. A radio that doesn't require me to punch it to get it to work and play my damn CD's and stop tuning itself to KMFM whenever the radio DJ plays a load of Justin Bieber shit.
Great news!
I have a 2001 Corsa with 4 digit radio. I have volume controls ect. on the steeringwheel, will those controls still work if i change the radio to a modern one?
Jørgen Kongsberg nope

what if the stereo locks ? how can you get it removed ?
Haha, No Problem.
You see the outside light switch thats to the right hand side of the steering wheel?
Push that in and it should come on - You may have to switch the ignition on :)
Do you work for halfords
How do you put a aux port into and astra life 2006?
I still dont understand what you mean by 2 digit or 3/4 digit.
How i find it out? I have a Corsa 1.2, 2002 and it has cassette player with radio: TYPE: CAR2004 (E)
So i have 2 digit or 3/4 digit one?
TIA
Top corner of the stereo. Yours is 4 digit.

Any single din will work, here are the ones we recommend.

I put the release keys in but the thing won't pull out? They are exactly the same keys used on this video and there are no screws to undo, what am I doing wrong?
Any luck?? Im doing it now, but the release keys wont release the unit!
+MrMe4u2nv I had to pry it out in the end, whoever had put the unit in had rammed it into a cage which was too small for it which is why he keys wouldn't pull it out
Thanks!. Do you know where i can get Vauxhall Corsa C facia's from?
Thank you. I appreciate your work.
Can i do that to the vauxhall corsa exite 1.0 ecoflex 2012 car too?
