Hi Baz, will do that but can I ask, once fitted will I still be able to use other functions ie Radio Reception etc. The Ad for it is in German so sourcing further info is very restricted on my part. Cheers Ken

ive ordered one of these myself.. and service is verry good. and it works fine. is does take some time to start up. but then again. with 4GB of mp3 it will need to search a little. only downpoint is. you cant keep a cd in the changer whilst wanting to listing to mp3. and can you switch with the steeringknobs between radio and cd?
