V50, Android, double din
Hi all,
just purchased a lovely V50. I'm considering replacing the stereo with an after market android double din. there seems to be hundreds available. what i cant work out is whether i will be able to keep the volume, tuning and radio preset functionality of the buttons on the floating dash. I can find plenty of info on wiring in the controls for the steering wheel buttons. the last thing i want is redundant buttons on the dash. Has anyone done this before? and is there a particular system which works best with the V50? thanks zac |

People have played with the audio system in the V50 before but it's very complicated. The dash is fibre optic so it's not easy to alter too much. I saw a 50 on eBay with a pioneer sat Nav on top of the dash like a factory system but that's a Japanese import and I don't think it affects the stereo
