Good Day People

I own a :opellogo: Corsa D 1.6 Sport, loving the car so much especially the boost. My only thing is my previous cars all gave me the opportunity to play music from a usb, whether it was build in or fitted. With the Corsa its bit hard as the car has no usb port which doesn't bother me to burn mp3 cd's but you know unlimited music adding and removing is the way to go. Although my fiancé sees it has a advantages because most of her music is all original and mp3 CD's it doesn't bother her.

I just want to know if there some how a way that a usb port could fitted to these cars, the one thing I didn't even want to bother with is that usb contraption you insert in the cigarette lighter and put the stick in, that is total failure if you drive over a pothole or something the hopes, haaks etc. and the whole damn song starts over again. So I'm seeking help/advice from those creative minds, do I remove the whole unit or is there a way to make this work. :student:

Thanks Guys

Boy, aren't you giving me a lot of work! haha!

I thought the std deck came with a USB port :eh:
I think the only other way to get around your issue is to install an aftermarket HU with USB capability

I know your pain lol
Best solution is aftermarket HU
Another option is to buy the CD30-MP3 with bluetooth, that way you have BT capabilities and play from your phone
and if you love DIY-ish stuff theres something else you can try and it's to buy a BT receiver that output's aux and plug it into your aux port and hide it somewhere,connect your phone and every time you get in your car you can just play from your phone

Option 1 = +-R4000
Option 2 = R650 - R1500
Option 3 = R500 - R1000
