it doesn't use the clock display so its ok for a metro. Not sure if it has the rover remote function though.

Location: Bromley, Kent		Yeah, that's the one. The one that has the Rover logo actually printed on the front and the large sticky outy rubber volume control.



Just found this thread on .org which may be of use if considering fitting one; It mentions about an adapter to the BMW type connector and which pins are needed for wheel controls.

Thats the same radio my dad has in his project W reg Rover 25 on mg-rover.org Its just standard ISO. In 2002 BMW changed the ISO plug to the massive BMW radio connector. On my bros 02 reg R25 I had to buy a BMW to ISO wiring conenctor to fit an after market cd player. You dont need the bmw adaptor as yours is ISO already.
