Bentley Replacement Stereo Upgrade

May 31st, 2017

Faulty Navigation System ?

Bentley GT 2006 factory stereoAs with many older cars the factory fitted stereo systems can be quickly out of date.  They can also develop faults that are expensive to repair or replace. If you are having issues with the OEM radio system in your Bentley or you are wanting to improve the features of it, then Source Sounds in Sheffield have the answer.  We can change the OEM radio in most Bentleys from 2004 upto 2011 by using a replacement stereo upgrade kit.

We can now upgrade the poorly featured factory stereo with something much better using a bespoke replacement panel. There are many options available that will bring the car into the 21st century with new features that the original radio system could only dream of having.  The dash panel supplied with the kit will allow the removal of the original stereo and the heater controls.  By replacing the heater controls with an LCD panel all functions are retained. This allows full control of all factory systems including the Tyre Pressure Monitoring system.  In addition, suspension settings, amplifier settings, lighting and wiper settings are amongst others. The audio controls on the steering wheel  are retained with the new radio system, including the phone answer button.

 

Upgrade Capabilities

Kenwood DNX-8106DABS system fitted into a Bentley 2004-2011Systems start from around £2500 supplied and fitted (the one in the picture was £2800).  This would be for a touch screen system that would give FM Radio, Navigation, CD/DVD, USB for memory sticks and iPod connectivity.  Apple Car Play is also built in to the unit, as well as a Bluetooth connection for phone calls and music streaming.  Also, for a slightly higher price, other features including DAB Digital Radio, Android Auto and larger screens are available.

Also, you could fit an additional reverse camera to the system. This would enable the driver to view what is behind the vehicle in the blind spot.

Testimonials

I bought a car radio from somewhere else with the intention of replacing the factory installed one. I contacted Halfords and they bluntly told me that they did not fit a radio that was not supplied by them. I then stumbled upon Source Sounds on internet and decided to give them a try.
What set wind to my sails was their warm customer relations and their confidence that it was “do-able!”. Their charges are reasonable as well.
They changed the fascia and in the process provided extra space for auxiliary equipment (space that had been covered by only two knobs on the previous radio). They kept me updated on the progress. I now have a trim dashboard , and am over the moon! Thanks to Paul and his team. Your customer care is second to none.

Was there today, 18th May at 8am to have the front components on my ford focus changed to a pair of Audison Prima’s, along with some sound deadening anf wave diffusers fitted.
Got there and the staff couldnt have been more helpful or polite. Told me it would he ready by midday. After 2 and half hrs i went to have a look to see how the work was going and the technicians were almost done with it even talking to me during finishing off the install to advise me on future upgrades im thinking of and how to achieve the result im after.
Overall im very impressed, can’t reccommend them enough and im definitely going back for the rear speakers and headunit, amp subwoofer setup in a few months.
They even vaccumed the car after they had finished and went through the setip of my current stock stereo to maoe sure the new speakers were set right, advising me on how to adjust the headunit to ensure optimal burn in for the new speakers.

Just wanted to say a massive thankyou to you guys at Source, especially Chris and Paul who over the past few weeks have impressed me no end. I went to them with a typically sub-standard BMW sound system, not really knowing how it should be improved and had a really friendly informal chat with Chris about the best route to take. What has impressed me most is that never at any point are the people here pushy – they really listen to your requirements and budget and make honest suggestions and give a number of options. Chris and Paul both spoke in some detail about what the issues were and how the problems could be addressed and I felt I was in safe, honest hands throughout the upgrade process. A whole new set of 3 way speaker set up and a new amp later the car sounds crystal clear like never before. Not wanting to change the head unit, the guys had solutions as to how to keep the car looking as factory as possible, and even asked me back in so they could check how the system has bedded in. Old components are carefully removed, allowing you to have them replaced should the car ever be sold. Their installation couldn’t be faulted and their customer service is genuinely excellent – polite, highly knowledgeable and above all honest, with their customer’s best interests at heart. I have no reservations in fully recommending them and have no doubt I will be back in future. Thanks again gents !! Jason
