    I scanned the thread. Is it pretty plug and play or do you have to add a harness and splice in the factory speakers etc?

    No wires were cut. Plug and play with the right harness adapter which is connected to the harness that comes with the radio.

    Please can you send the link to the harness adapter?

    And presumably you had a Becker unit in there previously? Thinking of getting one to replace my Becker 4372.

    I have an Alpine unit that is maybe 15(?) y/o and the motorized screen is intermittently having problems. I like the large/retractable screen and wonder if there are any "modern" units that could replace the Alpine?

    That PA unit looks pretty good. Thoughts after living with it for a while?

    Wow, that looks great! I was looking for something like that for my 550. What is the model number?

    I guess I am one of few that doesn’t care about infotainment. Never turned on the unit in my 599, the 458, SA, F12, the 812 and on …Heck the aren’t even speakers below the rear shelf in the 330.

    Yea, I dont use the system in the 550, but I think its because it sucks. I have significant systems in my other cars that are used non-stop.

    This would be good for navigation at the very least!
