Hello,
So far the aerial down function, wasn't recommended for our market (Europe) as the RDS function would have been disabled. Must have thought back in the day that this was really going to be the future.
Cheers

Both my cars are high spec. although the only unusual thing is probably the cd holder I bought for the C70 which looks like this:



Sometimes the slots get a bit stuck though To be honest the usual cubby hole is probably more useful (but less of a novelty....)

Hello,
Do you just have a single DIN stereo? If not, where have you placed the holder? Did you buy it new from the dealer a few years ago?
Cheers
