Audio upgrade for my wagon
Been looking for a blaukpunk toronto 420 or 440. But hard to find in the USA.
Looking for plug and play. No adapters, no cutting wires.
Also I have 6 speakers. 2 dash corners, 2 front door and 2 rear door. Anyone know the sizes and type? ( 2way, 3way, etc)
Thanks

That all depends on what year wagon you have. If it is a facelift car I would recommend the Continental TR7416UB-OR. Completely plug and play and includes Bluetooth and USB. Very reasonably priced and sometimes they show up on ebay. I purchased mine from Bergvillfx in Norway. Shipping was free and only took a few days.
Here's a photo of mine installed in a 1995 E320 Wagon.

The only thing it will not do is run the rear CD player. They have several head units, some with built in CD players if want CD's. There is a USB port on the front so you can load music directly from itunes to a USB drive or you can bluetooth music from your phone. The USB control is not so great but it sounds great. The other issue I've noticed is that the radio shuts off when you turn off the key and you have to turn it back on when you restart the car.

Thanks, will look into it. On the other hand I just found out my active base plug/ wiring harness is shot. Need to source a new one.
Any ideas were or who might sell me one?
