FOR SALE: Kenwood KDC-W7031 CD / MP3 Player £38

[C.A.R.]

Recently purchased this unit before being offered a slightly different Kenwood from a guy at work, so have just decided to keep whichever one I preferred!

This unit comes with ISO wiring, cage, cage trim, face plate storage box thing, original box and instructions.

Also included is an aftermarket Aux input which goes in place of the disc changer. The advantage of this being that the Aux cable comes out of the back, rather than the front which I detest. This means with careful threading you don't have any wires on show and can use your iPod etc. with the 3.5mm stereo plug.

This particular unit has a G-force meter thing which is hilarious fun, electric tilt/slide faceplate and a flashing LED when you remove the faceplate (so it looks like you have an alarm)

I'm just looking to get as much of my money back as possible, I paid £35 inc. delivery, plus another £8 for the aux adapter from Amazon. I'm looking for £38 delivered ONO.

Does have very light surface scratches but works perfectly and sounds fantastic.

Pictures of actual unit will follow but for now here is the product photo and description -

Seems like a nice little unit, if it had USB input, i might have been interested. GLWTS though, looks a bargain.

[C.A.R.]

Aye, that's why I'm keeping the other one I've been offered, USB is the only thing missing really! Aux-in is fine most of the time though. The spec on this one is actually better than the one I'm keeping

Pictures before it goes on eBay:



Rear- (two pre-outs, aux adapter goes where cd changer socket is)

[Kezzieboy]

oooooooh, what's the plug for the AUX lead like? I'd quite like that if it's the right type.

[C.A.R.]

It's the standard Kenwood cd changer plug, bought the adapter for about £10 on amazon

[Kezzieboy]

Willing to sell it?

[C.A.R.]

£5 whole pounds off, now £33 delivered to your door!

I'd keep this but you can't really take advantage of 2 head units

Could swap them over one week from the next I suppose...

[Kezzieboy]

Wanna sell me the cable? I'd take the whole thing but it's not very pretty

[C.A.R.]

Yea sorry for not coming back to you bud, will give it a few days, if no interest on here make me an offer on the cable and I'll stick the stereo on eBay

[Kezzieboy]

Cool, ta!
