I have just bought a '98 Vauxhall Corsa which has the most basic stereo in
it. It does not turn on and off with the ignition. Looking in the manual
only the higher spec ones do this. My question is if I get hold of a
second
hand higher spec stereo is it a straight swap or will I have to add or
change the wiring for this this feature to work?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

The Car100 & Car200 don't have ignition sensing. However the ignition live
is there in the ISO plug so if you upgrade to a Car300, 400, 600 or Delco
CDR500 then the unit will switch on and off with the keywithout any
alteration to the wiring. If the unit you are fitting is out of a Vectra or
Omega you will have to program the display setting on the radio so that the
remote display in the car works correctly, repost if you need this info
