Does anyone have any recommendations for car audio installers/someone to fit a car stereo please?

I have already purchased a double DIN Pioneer to replace the original stereo in a VW T5 van that has developed a fault. I was planning to fit it myself and got the old one out. Then the confusion started with wiring adaptors, etc, etc!

So this is not a big fancy supply and fit install, just someone who I could pay to fit it...

Ideally Leeds/Harrogate area.

Recently done the same, there should only be one canbus adaptor that fits into the back of the original headunit then buy something like this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/362765958092?hash=item5... youll need the trim as the original stereo is a different shape.
should be plug and play with this adapter you will have to get a switched (ignition) live though as the original stereo is controlled by canbus and the aftermarkets are not.
just an idea, sorry no recommendations for places in yorkshire could help you out if willing to come over the border to lancashire/burnley area.

Hope you get some help local to you, if you’re struggling D&I Autolectrics in Tadcaster have been very good for me over the years.

The guys at Skipton Car Audio (confusingly, now in Sowerby Bridge) are brilliant and would probably be able to just send you the right adapter if you tell them what you have. I've done loads of head units in T5s and fitted quite a bit of stuff from SCA and they know their stuff (and are good vfm).
