have you connected the handbake wire to earth if not then you will not be able to access the handsfree or watch dvds or use the sat nav
the handbrake wire is a light green and you just need to join it to the black earth wire in the stereo loom

Yeah the penny dropped and figured it out...bloody ace unit would recommend it to ANYONE wanting complete entertainment. Even sounds good if I turn my amp and sub off!

Has anyone else had this or a double din as for some reason mine doesnt sit right? Mine seems to have a lot of movement in the area and as result doesnt sit right and when put right it just slides down?? Are there any steppers or anything out there?
