    I didn't have any luck with it. My car had the Bose, but no PCM.

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    Mine has had problems skipping tracks in the past but not recently.

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    I could not play MP3's on my standard radio, this is quite annoying as I would have hoped that PAG would be on the cutting edge. I suppose the only solution would be an iTrip which I think is completely ineffective, or installing an iPod adapter which I have not managed to find one which looks okay. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    Just to be clear in response to the original question, the CD-24 without PCM plays MP3s burned on a CD, but not a disc with MP3s in data format.

    Mussberger, you can look forward to that problem coming back

    The track-forward/back knob no-workee so well.

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    The CD-24 system will only play CDs in "audio CD" format, but it does not care if you bought the CD off the shelf or burned your own in the standard audio CD format. It will not play mp3 format CDs.

    Me too actually. Can't get a better MP3 than that

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    nachi,

    why didnt u just order the PCM??

    u risk people stealing your unit and it looks a bit "out-of place" with the aftermark unit in the dash.......
    sorry, just my opinion....

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    Well i managed to burn mp3 songs in audio cd format (rather than data cd) and it plays fine in my MY06 C16 car - the files are still fairly sizeable at 3.5Mb each song, but you can get a lot on a 700Mb CD

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    o, i had i just took the unit from my old car and got some "experts" to install it for me... runs perfect

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    Hi Nachi,

    Where did you get the DIN cover plate from please? Has anyone tried to fit a Pioneer AVIC-D3 - Double DIN - I reckon it would look great.

    Cheers

    James

    Re: Does the 987 without a PCM play MP3s?

    Jameslunn, the guy in the link installed Pioneer's AVIC Z1 which is upmarket from the D3. Looks great due to the custom made plate.
