What exactly is this box?

This is situated behind the left hand panel in the boot. Is it the DAB radio? Can this box be changed for one with a DVB-T TV tuner in it without any other modification? Or is it something else? :Confused:

See the thread I made here:

You have the box... I have the wire! lol, I've still yet to discover what it plugs in to!

Dare we suggest: take it out and read the part number on the label - post it here. :cool:

Alternatively just pull the plug and see what stops working. :ROFL:

Yes... I will see if I can get the part number off it.

Just thought someone else may know what it was off the top of their heads. It has a big multi-plug connector and some fibre optic and maybe coax cables going into it, so I assumed it was the DAB radio, but it could be anything I guess.

Part number to follow.... thanks. +++

The wires look very much like speaker wires to me so I would suggest it is your amplifier. Looking at the size and shape of it I am guessing you won't have Bose or b&o so it will be the regular sound system amp. As yet we haven't had a d3 through the workshop without either Bose or b&o so I can't be 100% :Confused:

Ahhh OK.. Yes. I don't have Bose or B&O, just a "standard" sound system (must be in a minute minority with that one), so that must be what it is then. Thanks. I will still try and get the part number off it just to make sure. Thanks. +++
