Hi guys I have 04 vz crewman work ute and I love it, but I'd like to upgrade the stereo with something with a few more mod Con's. I don't want cheap Chinese crap but I don't want spend a mint. I'd like something plug and play as I'm not the greatest with that sort of thing. Any recommendation's ? Thanks heaps !

What brand? Did it slot right in or did you have to do any wiring?

Bought it off an ebay company located in Peakhurst NSW, plug & play except two wires I soldered into the main loom for steering wheel controls, very easy to install.

For apple owners, a CarPlay enabled double DIN unit is the go. Cost around $500-700 mark (or more for more high end options)
For Android phone users, these are hard to go past.

The new Alpine ILX-702D is worth a look (which has Android Auto) or maybe a refurbished ILX-007E (which is CarPlay only)

These integrate as plug and play once you get the standard double DIN facia kit and wiring kit. All plugs in.

Not a hard job and some useful youtube vids out there showing how to do this on VZ's
