Hudson Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I am still into Minidisc and like the SQ combined with the portability it offers, so i have been looking to replace my standard tape/radio headunit on my car for a while, but thought i would never find the MD53 unit that was an option with my car............ until Ebay that is.... and a cheeky £10 bid. Bloody won the thing, good nick with just a volume knob missing..... really chuffed to bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azureal Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Nice find Hudson! You know I am looking for the same unit just not sure if it will work in the E46 models sold in the USA. Post some pictures once you get it installed! I wonder if you can swap the knob from the Business Unit CD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azureal Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hudson, you have me thinking again ... Would this unit fit in my E46? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 wouldn't you go for this one, John? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-MINI-ALPINE-MD53-R50-RADIO-MINI-DISC-PLAYER-WARRANTY-/120894560785 Looks like these people have a stack of such things....

Hudson Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I think the volume knob is universal from all the Business units, i thought it would fit all the E46 units, i did not think different country models would matter. I will post a picture up when i get it..... prices for these, brand new from BMW are close to £800 !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
