So, Just got another c3! This time a 2006 with low mileage.
I noticed that the stereo in the 06 models seem to control quite allot of the computer onboard, but I really want bluetooth again, I'm unsure but is there anyway I can add another stereo to the unit but keep the original one? I know the plastic holder pops out. Also, Would Halfords be able to do this?
2006 1.4i SX New Stereo

Halfords? No idea, you would need to ask them.

Thanks for the quick reply!
Do you have a wiring diagram or anything like that? Halfords seemed rather confused when I called them this morning regarding keeping the original stereo in place so I don't loose the on-board computer.

I don't have a diagram but it would only be a case of splitting the power and ground to supply both units then separate the speaker connections from the Citroen radio and re route them to the new stereo wiring.
Its a custom job so I am not at all surprised that Halfords don't know what to do.
