Trying to work out the best way to get some mp3 ability into this thing.
Would any later stereos from the later Pugs & Citroens be a plug & play in the M59.
It would be nice to keep the dash display & steering wheel stalk controller if possible.
I have Lexia.
Any thoughts?

Hmm, on further reading, rd3 was on VAN bus, & rd4 was the later CAN bus.
Changeover about the same time as my Pug was built, 55 plate so sept 2005 to feb 2006.
Sigh!
Simple just doesn't seem to happen.

It is a long time ago but I seem to remember that I contacted them and gave them details of my vehicle and they advised which one was needed.

Just looking on the catalogue from the given link, looks like there could be,
rt3 van bus, rt3 can bus, rd4 van bus & rd4 can bus.
Urgh! I've got too old.

Let's see if Peugeot Planet can shed some light on this.

On closer inspection, looks to be the Clarion RD3.

Any thoughts?

If you simply want MP3 on a CD, there are some versions of the RD3 that will work. If you want USB or SD connections, that's another matter.
I bought a phono adapter for the CD changer socket and connected that to a Bluetooth amp which seems to work ok. The Yatour box you linked looks interesting.

The ebay offering is cheaper but the Xcar link has a very good support system including telephone.
