Finally got round to installing this

It's actually pretty good I was dubious as its Chinese but it's been good.

It's running kitkat 4.4 on a quad core platform
I run the Amazon prime music app so it down loads all my music onto its internal memory via wifi on my drive or if I pair my phone to it

Has built in sat nav aswell. I ran the antenna behind the dash and its sat inside the canopy thing over the clocks so no wires dangling about. Found a free sat nav app that down loads all the maps and speed camera info so you don't need a data connection on the go. Have to connect my phone if I want live traffic data

The radio signal is very poor but I didn't want it for the radio as I never listen to that anyway. But apparently a powered aerial will solve that


Not sure what rooted means

Have you retained steering wheel controls?

Looks just like the one I chose and talked myself out of buying (no DAB > 5Live & 6Music), but syncing in the driveway is #1 on the most useful features list.

Have you retained steering wheel controls?
Looking at the back of a standard Honda unit the other day, steering wheel controls wire in via the primary plug and are probably Can-Bus, had wondered if they were hard-wired so easier to emulate.

It can do heater controls and steering wheel controls but my Jazz didn't have any off that

I have the DAB module on it now as the radio signal was poop
It also can Bluetooth to the ODB port and you get all sorts of info on the screen from all the sensors
