Qashquai radio dead

Hooked · 2014-10-03 20:26:41

Howdy peeps. Dads 07 radio has died. Been to an auto electrician and says it's gone to God, needs new one. I haven't seen it yet but would imagine an aftermarket radio won't fit the fascia. If I got another from a scrap yard - will I have code / activation issues? And what of the built in phone kit / speaker? Any advice…

These radios are not interchangeable from one car to another. My advice , try and get original repaired
