Hmmm, you might think it sounds handy but its shite tbh. The control from the steering wheel only works in some positions.

The voice control is ok but sometimes its easier just using the screen. Things like return home are ok but its annoying when you say next track or whatever it is and it changes cd...

I had a voice activated stereo in my escort before i wrote it off (so long ago it came with vcr controls :blink: ) It was amusing changing the skip track to "this song is :censored: " and watching passengers faces as it changed. I used it quite a bit, depends how lazy you are i suppose!

i think its 12 x 24 x 3 will have to check, its alot of hard work to do it though, i would have made kits and sold them but i would get people moaning its too hard to fit.

What was the hardest bit?

I am thinking of having a go myself if I can get the bits at a decent price.



i have a full 2.5'' pipe system no squashes etc brand new intercooler, delivered and fitted by myself for roughly £250-£300, there was no real hard bit as such just a pain when you need some bits that you do not have.

At that price I would be willing to give it a go I think.
It's just getting the parts and the basic know how.

What little extras did you need then Rick?

Do you have any recommendations(parts,manufactorers,fitting)?

Sorry i just read my last post and it sounded a bit bitchy and its wasn’t meant to. What i mean is there are symbols there but they don’t seem to come up at any time. Maybe it’s a function they started to do and didn’t remove them?

Did you find them ok? You know when you can set which information you want displayed on the map (road works etc) its one of the options there
