Hello Peter

Sat Nav is touchscreen and so far I am very pleased with it and the system is working very well ( have tried it in the UK and Europe)
It pops up like the Volvo screen and is the same size so it looks just like the Volvo screen.
It doesn't have bluetooth (would have been nice)
It does cover Europe ( western)
It doesn't do traffic yet though Peter says this should be available via update in future ( device SW appears to offer support for TMC)
Maps can be updated (SD card)

You can chose to have the sound via front speakers on a mute relay (like bluetooth phone etc) or as I did via a speaker under the sat nav screen and given the location I can hear it fine over the radio. It also avoids the sat nav cutting in / out and muting the speakers if the children are listening to DVD via car speakers.

Screen pops up / down on ignition, but there is also a remote to lower the screen manually. Peter also connected the screen to the DVD player so I can see what's on the rear headrest screens (obviously only when stationary).

The screen also has a connection for rear view camera (will switch to this automatically).

The satnav device also allows music / video to be played directly through it ( via SD Card or via USB connection) though I haven't tried this.

Ref the DVD/ screens. These are headrest mounted screens. I have 7 inch screens but Peter also supplies smaller (5.8inch ) screens that he originally supplied and fitted for Volvo into XC90s.

The DVD player is in the glovebox. The sound can be connected to the aux in - so can they be picked up via the rear seat headphone sockets, but the screens output the sound via IR and Peter supplies two pairs of IR folding headphones (batteries last ages) so I wouldn't imagine that you'd ever need to use the headphone sockets.

If you use the IR headphones then you can use the radio up front , though if you use the aux in and divert the sound via rear speakers instead of using the headphones then you can't have radio on as well ( understandably).

Hope this helps...

Thanks for the info regarding your System. Just about to buy our first XC90. Would love to know the cost of the Satnav and DVD via head rests. Based in Guildford, Surrey.

Peter can you PM me with a quote.

Thanks

Joe
