As I'm rapidly approaching 50, yes I know I only look like a 25 rear old lol, my Mrs has asked if there's anything I want for the GT. Has anyone got experience of the classic looking DAB radios on offer?

 

Was thinking parcel shelf mounted speakers with a DAB head unit, Thanks

My Riley is older than your GT but i’ve been looking at this stuff to keep it completely hidden. Would mean streaming radonthrough my phone but I do a lot of that anyway.

They have some nice looking dab stereos but can’t comment on the quality.

Those spindle mount ones are perfect for the look I was after, looks like my mrs will be getting stung for a couple of hundred quid lol.

There's a few retro looking ones on ebay/amazon for about 20 quid, but for that price I'd be better off singing lol

I would go for a fully hidden one. Using your phone as the head unit and Bluetooth to an amp.

Straight cuts Jimmy, best head unit you can have ;)

Has to be a centre rear shelf speaker surely, properly period along with the nodding dog

We've got a nodding Bob Ross, does that count?

Dont forget the Feu Orange dangling from the rear view mirror...... Have you seen the price of them now...?

 

Id also go fully hidden with bluetooth dongle and amp too....
