Once you know what you want it's as simple as you g to any major ICE place and filtering for those options.

Sorry, you are right, I wasn’t clear. I’m not looking for improvements in sound quality, the OEM install sounds fine to my untrained ear. The content in the thread so far was focused on the required output from a head unit to match the capability of the existing speakers (and I suppose the separate amp in the R). That was the main aim of my question, rather than DAB, DVD capability etc, so that I know what to look for when choosing a new head unit.

Any new decent headunit will do the job without getting to technical and in depth i just wanted a decent stereo which does my main features. So I ended up with a kenwood👍🏾. But luckily I got some standard 850 door speakers and it sounds great again. |

OK, thanks, so any modern head unit should be suitable?

Pretty much, they all offer around 200W total (normally stated as 4x50W) at 4ohm, so are a direct power replacement to most of the unamped SC-XXX range.
I do apologise, I thought you were looking for a much more specific answer!

Thanks gents, sounds like a simple checklist to run through.
