Okie cheers, I thought of doing that too. My ipod is hidden so not an issue.

So was mine in the armrest, but now I don't have to worry about it.

I can also use the Bluetooth from my mobile phone to the head, with equal sound quality, and if anyone gets in my car I can listen to their music too via their phone.

On newer iPods you can just Bluetooth the connection and keep it in your pocket.

Here is the DVB set up Video on You tube
Just to note these plug and play AND they interface with the touchscreen.

Default Sharkfin...?

Hi does anyone know how well Seans sharkfin works with this setup? Would it work any better than stick on aerial and magnetic under dash gps aerial. It seems like a neat solution... once you get over the panic of drilling thru roof!!!

I do

I have the Shark Fin installed and working on mine.
The RADIO and TV work fine with it. The GPS and GSM I never connected as my magnetic GPS aerial is mounted at the top of the dash ( not under ) and has never given me any problems.
The GSM aerial would be used in conjunction with a phone hands free kit which I don't have so that is unused.
I'm guessing they would work fine as well if I were to use them

Hi Jub,

Everything you get is in the first post advert that Sean put on this thread with the exception of the wiring and the units remote control!
The wires are the standard things to allow connection to the car loom etc and I never took any photos of those so I can't help you with that I'm afraid.
I can take a picture of the remote control if you like and post it here later
In the meanwhile here are some more photos and videos for you
