Alpine normally have the nicest UI IMO(I find it easy to use with iPod, JVC is a PITA without the remote)... Alpine 9887 is my pick, 9886 is similar but slightly lower spec.

I have a 9857 in the stag, all the features you need, being older is more solid, the 9887 is the new model, will get one for the 32 at some point, dont pay over 480ish. JB had them for that yesterday. ebay has them for that all the time http://shop.ebay.com.au/?_from=R40&_tr...8&_nkw=9887

Mate how much do you have to spend?

If its 500ish go for the alpine 9887 as RB_Ryan said.

If you want to spend 150 I'd say go for the cheap spec Pioneer one JB has (DEH-1150MPG from memory). I paid 138 for the one they advertised with the 6" splits (ticket price was $194ish?). Loads the next track in next to no time, heaps of options, has a remote and AUX-in aswell.

If you're going to get one for use with an iPhone, be aware of the new laws...search the forums if you don't know what I'm talking about, or check it on the Vicroads website.

      Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?

      Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS

      Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
