Hello All,

Did just wanted to know if anyone was used something similar. Trying to find something OEM looking and not the usual square aftermarket units.

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262388066710

    I fitted a windows based one in one of my old Focus's. Fitting was easy. The connections weren't great and need some manipulating to get the canbus to work. There are masses of wires and these can be a little difficult to tuck away.

    The steering controls still worked.

    I fitted a reversing camera to mine and was very pleased to find the screen automatically showed the rear view when reverse was selected.

    The sound quality was ok but not as good as the factory fit.

    TV is a waste of time as you need an aerial the size of a house to get a signal.

    DVD worked fine and if you want it to work while in motion (not legal) the earth that goes to the handbrake can just be connected to any earth.

    Satnav used IGO software which I really like.
