Over the top probably but also put in amp although the head unit one probably adequate .

The amp sits nicely in front of gear lever under the cover .

I also took their adaptor so that DAB can be fed from the normal aerial

So on plus side . I think it looks good. And sounds good

Not so good. As multifunctional device there are multiple functions for each knob and multiple sub menus but just a question of getting used to it

Beware . You have to assemble he head unit

More importantly fader not quite right !!. Doesn't fade front to back properly on one channel . Have tried rewiring but no joy so assume that it is the head unit . I have tried ringing but no answer and no response to email yet. Clearly closed for lockdown.


So unless they have a solution , I will need to swap it for a replacement

I suggest that before you commit, you make sure that at you have spoken to
Someone there. I spoke to them before buying and they were v helpful

I can send you pics if you like or speak to you if that helps

Bw
