Have you actually tested the voltage the alternator is putting out?
Check voltage on battery with car off, turn car on and see what its putting out. You want something north of 13 volts or the...

I've got no idea but how is that head unit? Until this point was it good? Work with the steering wheel controls etc?

Yes that would have been perfect except for the age of it.

Run a multimeter (if you don't own one buy a 12 dollar jobie from supercheap, looks like a kids toy but it works as good as my couple hundred dollar job for basic work) on the battery to check the...

Well as she wanted a wagon and thought my VZ wagon was to big I ended getting her an i40. Really wishing I could have talked her into an VF, as I lost my tow vehicle with the VZ but she wasn't a fan...
