The sat nav does but the climate control function doesn't. I don't know weather that's just because my car is a pre 2007 car or not

Daveyboy. Do you have any problems with battery drain? Is the only thing worrying me about buying one.
No mate everything seems fine on that front

Good grief this Erisin company are US, they now finally contacted me & asked me to contact the courier, I clearly told them the courier will not talk to me anymore as it's being investigated, then PayPal tell me the tracking info.. WHY? I can't call them you idiots!! :fighting:

I'll just take a refund now, sod the radio.

Shame, it looks like a good unit.
Did you order from http://erisin.kancart.com?

There are some supposed UK based sellers on eBay, but their prices are a bit higher.

Yep, bought it from them, they have a warehouse in southall, so it was shipped locally, & it still got lost!
Very difficult to deal with.

I've just bought one too. It was cheap enough so I thought why not give it a go

I like the way it looks oem

Davey is yours a 7698? Mine looks a bit different to yours and the your layout looks better unless there is some sort theme or skin I can change?

Hi, looking at getting this HU (super cheap for what you get!)

Did you order it direct?

Is it just plug in and go?

Got it from eBay,
for what its worth, I prefer eBay over directly buying from site.
They can avoid you directly, eBay they cant, and if they do. You can open a case against them and eBay will step in and make decisions.
So that gives me piece of mind.

yup. plug and play for me.
just had to get a different harness to get the leds to work on the HU. Which they provided, however id say, ask this before hand so you dont have to wait for the new one. They didnt charge me anything for it.

Hope this helps
