Hi all,

I know this is a very general and possibly emotive question, but I'll
risk it.

I'm pulling the factory radio/cassette out of my 02 Primera (P11-144)
and replacing with an after-market Radio/CD.
(Nissan are gougers having raised the price from 15 to 43 pounds for
the new hazard light switch that is required.)

Features required a
1. Excellent radio sensitivity performance
2. At least 6 medium wave presets, at least 12 FM
3. Ease of use (and intuitive without the instructions)
4. MP3 play, USB-in, Aux-in

The following seems to fit the bill and are very similarly priced (JVC
cheapest, Sony most expensive, but very little in it.)

1. JVC KD-R401
2. Pioneer DEH-2100UB or DEH-2120UB
3. Kenwood KDC-W4044UA
4. Sony CDX-GT430U

I would love to hear your opinions of the relative merits of these.

As an aside, the radio sensitivity both on AM and FM with the factory
unit is very poor compared with my old 94 Primera. The old car had a
longish vertical antenna on the rear wing, the new one has the roof
mounted slant antenna. Do you think I have a problem (antenna or
radio) or is this to be expected.

Thanks,
Jack
