Then its a pig of a job to change the tuner box as the RSE ECU is in the way...

I have a Hybrid fitted in mine and have used it maybe 6 times in 6 months! The kids prefer DVD's!!! All im saying is, its expensive and a real pain to fit... If its worth it...

I did have a rummage Craig, but I must be being thick / blind as I can't find anything.

I'm guessing the tuner box is somewhere in the back with the nav drives etc?

Yes, it is in the back left compartment. This is mine (but I don't have RSE)

Thanks Johnte. I'll have a poke about when I get the car...which I'm hoping will be in approximately 49 hours, 39 minutes.

Microcat should be able to tell you from the build spec. If you PM me the chassis number or possibly the reg number, if its the original one, I can check for you straight away

Thanks for confirming.

I'll wait until I've got the car (just in case someone has upgraded it) but it looks like I'm going to have to get one...I can't have a car with a TV function that doesn't work!

I've seen the hybrid units for circa £250 on eBay - does that seem a fair price?  Past (too many to list, but a few favs)...

So it looks like there's been a little confusion!

The part fitted to my car is XRA500070 which IS the hybrid digital tuner. So great news as I don't need to spend more dosh.

However, as I thought I had the analogue I've sourced a hybrid replacement from a breaking 2008 FFRR and I've been offered it for £120 inc P&P which is a bobby bargain I think.

So if anyone wants one for that price, let me know..I'll pass on the eBay item details so you can contact the seller.

Yep mines a 2006 but 2007 model and it's a hybrid tuner. However I agree with Craig I never use it, just turn it on now and then to see if it still works. But then I would listen to Radio 2 all day if it wasn't for that stirring clown at lunchtime  Geoff
