ASL logistics can sell you a whole upgrade package I rthink you would be looking around 1600. Otherwise keep your eye out for a premo setup on ebay or on here.

Correct. you take out your existing one and replace it with ther premium one. Basically you get the entire complete ICC unit but with the premiuim colour screen which you can hook up to a TV or DVD player. The screen itself is a lot larger and colour as well and is built in to the ICC. They are found in fairmont ghias, FPV GT's, Typhoons and other top range model's...or they were an option from factory when you bought the car on XR's and others.

>Cough< there's a few Colour/6 Stack units up on eBay right now, but only one that's a straight swap for an existing single CD low series unit. The rest are Climate Control jobbies.

Just don't pick on the seller......;-)

Headrest monitors were on ebay for $150 for vinyl or leather, sure as heck beats $1550.

I strongly recommend upgrading to a colour ICC, though for an XT you will need a base model ICC with the larger colour screen.

when you say climate control do you mean the dual zone? ie high series?

Yep. Colour Screens/6 Stack CD are in either the Low Series with the Premium Sound upgrade, or in all the high series.

Swapping from Low Series to High Series is hard, but swapping from Low Series normal or Prestige to Low Series Premium is quite easy.

I've got another thread around here documenting my mission to upgrade from Low Series with Premium Audio to high Series Dual Zone.
