Get one fitted for $2000 as they are the Eclipse double din as used in top end Toyotas.

Not wrong!! That is twice the price of my series 1 plus change.

For 16k I could really trick up my car better than that I am sure!!

So by looking at this it would seem that the sound system is integrated into it. Is that correct? What about bluetooth?

you will need the clock module as well, cause the enviro display is removed in the dealer fit.

The option was $3k inc labour.

of course the reversing camera was an extra $125.....

Ha! the dealer states that it is LPG compatible. Now from what I understand and from what the manual tells me, the GT and VRX are NOT LPG compatible. Mind you he also says it has 8 speaker and 16 speaker sound. Does that mean that there are 24 speakers in the car? Me thinks not. We are, after all, talking about a used car salesperson eh?

I thought i read somewhere that all Series 3 engines are gas compatible. But I could be wrong.. Regarding speakers, I think they count a 3 way speaker as 3 speakers (ie mid range is 1 speaker and the tweeter is another one).:nuts:

Yes the Series 3 was pitched as LPG Compatible. I would really like to get Gas installed but am a little annoyed in MMAL as my S3 VRX is not compatible for the IMPCO system.

Why is that? If its not compatible with IMPCO 56 then what is it compatible with?

Are you sure about that?

Are you sure you have a series 3.

Have alook at the dipstick, directly behind it should be three drilled holes, 2 next to each other and the other 4 cm away.

If the holes are there you're cooking with gas...:)

Looks like I may be wrrrr wrrrro err incorrect lol on the LPG side of things. I was only reading from the manual for series 1 after all. As for the speaker well you be the judge!!:hmm:

I have 3 holes about centre of the head where the dipstick is otherwise there is 3 knobs un-drilled near the disptick.
Has anyone maybe got a photo?
