Waze is OK, ppl in my office rave about it, but it does require a data connection.

With all that said I'll see if I can convince the Mrs we need a new headunit in the car.
There is no replacement for displacement....
But a turbo does help....

I can just go into it and look at the gauges but they don't actually work, looks cool though

Looks good man! As long as it's got a UK warranty you should be fine

I also ordered the 9405 a couple weeks back (different seller, but UK shipped). I'll post a separate review for people so we don't clog up this thread too much with cross talk  :signLOL:

Hey just checking back in to see how your getting on with the unit?!still eyeing it up for when I have some spare wonga!

A guy at the dealer recently said to me that fitting Chinese aftermarket I'll have to wire something to make it turn off with the ignition? Any such issue? Thanks

How are you getting on with this now after a few more months of ownership? Been looking a these for my car, but not sure as I want it ideally for Bluetooth calls & spotify, are the calls clear on this unit?
Thanks.

Sorry for the really late reply not been on much at all recently. The unit is still holding up perfectly, the bluetooth for music is great and call quality is clear! only thing is i find i have to shout a little bit as the microphone isn't amazing. If youre still interested i'd give one a go! There's probably even better ones about now i would have thought

Hi, thanks for the update, I found the same unit in UK, still over £210, but with make an offer on it, the 4.4.4 ones are £210 so I figured £160 was a fair offer on an older unit.

Yeah that does seem about right! And for that price I don't really think you can go wrong. Makes the interior looks so much smarter as well
