Seademon 0 Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I've lost the face to my Pioneer head unit - last seen when I went shopping, I think what Ive done is put the face in a bag when I unloaded the car and then thrown the bag away with the face still in it - before I buy myself a nice new Alpine, theres nothing I can do is there ie: I cant just buy a face from anywhere?
