CD70 problem please help!

[TopRod]

my new CD70 arrived today but its now quite as described. It is from a 2005 on shassis car and has the pre-facelift heater surround around the CID screen.

I need to know if this screen will fit into a facelift SRi heater surround because vauxhall told me that there are 2 newer versions of this screen I have. Basically I want to put this screen into the face lift vents but I worried it won't fit has anyone done before ??

Thanks

Post up a picture of it, we can then see what were on about. Or, just see if it will fit.

Once you have the strip off the dashboard, its four torex screws to take the old surrond and screen out. 10 min job if you are being careful and not done it before mate.

Someone with a cd70 might know better but iirc the newer CID's for a facelift are bigger I think plus pre-face and facelift vents are different ones rounded other is more square.

I'll post some pictures up tomorrow, am not at home at the mo. It looks the same screen size I'm just not sure about the depth. I've got pictures of the CID and my original CD30 screen but not of a newer CD70

Edit: I've had it in the dash and it just doesn't fit, it works perfectly fine all functions working but just won't go in.

i take it youve got atm the cd30 with the monochrome display fitted in ya
facelift.

the colour display you got with ya cd70 will not fit your facelift display
surround so what you will have to do is swap the chrome vents off ya
origional surround and fit them onto the suround you got with the cd70 and
colour display then that way you get to keep ya chrome vents and have the
colour display fitted into the pre facelift surround but im sure the outer edge
of the pre facelift display surround is a different slightly so just compare
them before doing anything.

Bought a facelift sat nave surround and it fits like a glove, no problems
