Lucky, I don't have the worldwide version. Had to buy the converter plus some other gadgets to adapt this to my Bose system. Turned out great but was a PITA to install. Sounds great though, you will like it, matches the Z's interior very well.

Cool HU; very nice looking! Tough to find a decent looking double-DIN unit outside of a full vid screen.

One guy on a austrialian website I read this morning said he bought this HU last year for 2K and was now selling it for $700.

When I was looking for mine, I checked all the markets where Sony sold this unit, Australia being one - and I had sticker shock when I converted the money. Those Aussies must be rich.

I think I paid $400 NEW for mine off these boards. Pretty sweet deal. The radio frequency converter was $50 so I keep my radio stations.
