Fitment was very easy but had to have the interface programmed because the "CD" option was greyed out, had the programming done with an Autologic unit at
Mstyle, cost £50. The sound is much better.

HI,

Can you talk through what you have done and roughly the overall cost. I would love to do somthing similar as the radio frequency interface is really starting to bug me.

Thanks in advance.
