Deposit paid on a 13 plate (MY2014) R-Design Lux Nav with every bell & whistle you could possibly imagine.

I feel like a grown up at last after buying rattlers for 20 years 😂

Nice. Like a red version of mine!

Welcome to the club. More photos when you have it please?

On my list:
-Polestar upgrade
-figure out what colour of prancing moose goes with red (hopefully, yellow, as I have those already, but the car is very red & black at the moment).
-fit the dashcam from the old V40 classic that's been sat in the drawer since I bought the S40

All the important stuff, y'know?

Easington · Oct 20th, 2020, 10:20

Which dashcam do you have?

I've ruined my DAB reception by fitting a Thinkware F100 with rear camera - really annoying to the point of wanting to rip it out and try a different one

One of the Rexing (V1P?) dual cam kits. I had it in the V40 but didn't bother to mount the rear camera. I didn't bother to mount either of them in the S40, as although I fell in love with the engine I didn't really have the same love for the rest of the car. This one's a keeper so it's worth the effort to do things properly. Funnily enough there's a thread giving tips on mounting the power & signal through to the rear camera, so now I just have to find a good place to mount it. It's designed to be waterproof and go outside but I've honestly no idea if that's asking for trouble with cable routing and potential water ingress. I will be getting a towbar fitted so at that point it might be worth cabling both up at the same time.

Thanks. I've seen my ar5e a bit with mine and removed the rear one. DAB is now restored
