Great Demo Sean, I don't think you could show any more, all questions should now be answered by viewing the demo.

One question, is this over the Bluetooth or from the rear connection?

Hello,

I've ordered this Chinese system, too. It hasn't arrived yet. But in a german forum I've read, that I can't use my Harman Kardon amp and Subwoofer system any more. Not without a lot of modifying....

Did anybody try to modify the system?

Radioguy · 29th March 2010, 19:10

Hello

The good members of the forum say yes. It will work.

No need to worry, I'm getting mine installed by someone who's done it already.

As soon as mines arrived (compliments of radioguy

), I'll have a proper how to guide put on here for the Harmon Kardon / Highline setup, so watch this space!!!

Not sure if this has been discussed above (there are nearly 1000 posts so apologies if I repeat one) but...

...in 2015 analogue signal will be switched off so we'll all need DAB. Do these units pick up DAB? I know I can listen to digital radio through my digital TV and by using a freeview tuner but that isn't quite the same.

Kai Herb · 31st March 2010, 07:55

No these are not Dab enabled.

They do have built in DVB-T available but We would have to order 50 pces and it is suitable only up to 30 km/hr so I do not recommend it and it is almost impossible to sell 50 pces under those circumstances.
I do recommend an external receiver. You can see 2 earlier postS about them here.

We sell them together with the Head Units (shipping NOT extra) here
but are out of inventory at the moment. http://www.autogpsdvds.com/index.php...&product_id=72

We are all waiting delivery of units with RDS On or about April 20th.

Hi i recently joined club aftar buying a 05 plate 75 connie tourer auto CDTI this site has been a fantastic mine of information. I have solved alot of problems using the forums. Had very poor fuel economy, i have fitted synergy and pierburg maf, cleaned EGR , much better now runs great and rock solid tick over, learned how to check running temp using in car diagnostics runs at 76-78 so bought new thermostat not looking forward to fitting it though. Does anyone think my mpg will improve noticably? Back to my query, have phillips CD413X fitted noticed you only had radio cd fitted will this unit plug straight in to my car ie do i have the correct plugs ect and will all the functions work ok.Lastly if it will wher can i order one from and how much will it be? THANKS!!!

RadioGuy,
I'm still a bit confused how the external DVB-T interacts with the head unit.
Does it show what channel you are on, what channels are available, does the touch screen work while using it, or does it just send video to the head unit, and will it pick up digital radio?
Would it be possible to do one of your fantastic U-Tube videos to show how it works?
Thanks
