XJR factory stereo
Hello all, new owner of a 03 XJR and new to the forum. The factory stereo and CD changer in my car have been removed and replaced with a cheap aftermarket radio. I would like to reinstall a factory unit though there seem to be various different part#'s for the head unit, changer & amp. The Alpine speakers are still there at least. Any help on which are compatible would be appreciated.
Thanks,

All the wiring was standard m there is a plug for a mike behind the overhead console and another electrical plug for the phone module underneath the storage tray in the center console. There is also I believe another plug for the antenna at the center rear of the headliner

Harness is still intact. I'm actually very impressed by the after market install; used the proper connectors to connect into the amp harness without splices. I would assume I could just plug in the replacement head unit, amp, and changer and be good to go. Am I on a fools errand though? Is the the factory stereo worth the effort to reinstall?

My latest acquisition the factory head unit had dying stereo outs to sun baked speakers so I replaced everything & I must say I'm very pleased.
Head Unit : Kenwood DPX501BT
Speakers : Rockford Fosgate P-165 (6.5')
Subwoofer : Memphis Audio 12' ported in trunk
Amp : Memphis Audio 500 Watt

Even with the foam of the factor speakers descinagrating I'm OK with the factory head unit.
This weekend plans include replacing the door speaker with the same Rockford Fosgate P165's that king Charles used, and new foam for the REAR deck speaker.
BTW, I've got the Harmon Kardon system.
The addition of a aux input would be nice...

But YES!
Question. If I remove my unit will the security have to be reprogrammed?
