it really impresses me to what lengths these brilliant car engineers and designers would go to make the process of simple change of a stereo unit as user unfriendly as possible. this is madness..
No it's not needed for this job. You could de-activate them by disconnecting the battery and leaving it for a few minutes, and then reconnect it when you're finished the job, if it makes you feel safer.
@@screwsnutsandbolts no problem, I found a forum of people who have micras and apparently it's just removing the cubicle on top of the radio and plugging another wire. Do you remember if there was another wire behind the stereo unit?
I don't remember if there was any extra wires back there to be honest, I was just focused on the stereo wires. It's possible there was but I couldn't be sure.
This is superb. Can I change the Nissan radio for an after market one and if so do I need a special electric plug adapter? OTOH is there a way in which I could run an AUX 3.5 wire to somewhere so I can use an MP3 or phone with a jack? All best wishes.
Thanks. Yes you can fit an aftermarket stereo but you may need a wiring plug and/or aerial adapter. I don't really know about the other wiring as I don't really do much with audio systems.
You'll probably need something like this to fish it back out: www.amazon.com/Magnetic-Pickup-Bend-Hard-Reach/dp/B07S35DC4Y Make sure the battery is disconnect before you start fishing !
I am going for a regular sized, bluetooth, standard, single DIN unit for €50.. There is also those with a pop out screen and some that fit a single slot radiohole but with a larger screen but then it would cover the little box for glasses and stuff :) check local retail or online store that you see fit.. To fit anything bigger you have to modify the dash. But you will probably spend more money on the radio than the car is worth. Nice little car but man.. talk about making it hard to remove something that should be simple to swap. On my 1968 car you see the screws to take out when changing something. Removing plastic cover on the A pillar to remove top of the dash to reach the bracket to FFS... It could have been as easy as the top 2 screws and the ones underneath.. we will see if this will be worth it.
Thanks
Hey thank you very much for your support !. I really appreciate it ! 👍👍

My dad used to tell me how stereo units were at some point a major theft target, so I guess it makes sense in that context
i just got one that doesnt have any stereo at all, its just plastic, i want to install one but it might be better i get a whole new cover for it?
Life saver thank you very much!👍
You're welcome!
Did you turn off airbags before installing or is it not needed?
No it's not needed for this job. You could de-activate them by disconnecting the battery and leaving it for a few minutes, and then reconnect it when you're finished the job, if it makes you feel safer.

@@screwsnutsandbolts VERY MANY THANKS.
Thank you very much for your help
You're very welcome, thanks for watching !
Are car radios inter changeable? , as my duff Nissan ones needs renewing , will the rear plugs all fit a new radio ? DIN 1
You might need a wiring adaptor but that should be easy enough to get
@@screwsnutsandbolts topman cheers , as the car 20 yrs old might not bother but thanks for our advise
You're welcome, still worth having your sounds ! :)
Hello! While i was installing it back i have droped one of the boltonside , what should i do?

Is this the same as a 2006 Nissan March? Cheers!
Yes I think the March should be very similar to the Micra k12
Question: is that plug&play for Blaupunkt 1123BT? ISO etc.
I'm not sure, you may need an adaptor
Ah, guess im just not getting my radio back on then 😅
Lmao. My thoughts too. He opened the side panel and I said no.
