Cheers mate!

No post editing as such. Just a tad more contrast and definition in aperture

The photos have to be RAW for this to work properly though  :happy2:

Update...

Fitted the Fiscon Basic Plus bluetooth kit earlier. Boy is it better than the parrot kit. Integration with the RNS510 is just fantastic as is the steering wheel controls and the highline in the dash panel

Well worth the pennies! Ill get some pics soon

Nice, but what camera, Lens, Aperture and shutter speed used?

Very nice going on your Bluetooth kit.

Two Nikon D80s, one with a Tamron F2.8 18-55 and the other with a Nikon 50mm F1.8

Photos were taken set at f2.8 for the foremost with a shutter speed of around 800-2000 as it was a bright day. ISO on 100

The fiscon Bluetooth really is superb. I think my favourite feature so far is the e-mfa add on



Now I don't have to wonder what the oil temp is!

You need to install the Fiscon Basic Plus kit and enable it on the CAN Gateway as telephone, and providing you have a highline dash, it will all display  :happy2:

Sure thing guys. One of the best addons I have done I think anyhow.

Integration with the RNS510 is just awesome. Full phonebook, dialling, call lists, presets, bluetooth streaming - even direct dial from the MFSW in the highline!

....All that has gone straight over my head. I have an Alpine SatNav etc and not a RNSthingy and I don't have Highline and I don't use a phone of any kind in my car. Shame.
