So I'm really happy with my parrot asteroid smart, except for one thing. The lack of a physical volume knob.
People stateside fit these: http://www.amazon.com/Fusion-Control-Power...olume+knob and they work well. The amazon reviews are full of people saying "bought this for my parrot asteroid, great!" So it's perfect. EXCEPT: I can't find anyway to get one in the UK 
Can anyone help? Please! Having to use a touchscreen volume slider when driving is difficult and dangerous to say the least! Cheers, David Land Rovers of all shapes S3 onwards… Daily is a 110 V8. |

Unsure what software the Astertoid runs but what about something like this?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Griffin-1040-PMT-P...m_sbs_ce_1 Cheaper option perhaps may suffice? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Griffin-Technology...escription If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |

I'm told this doesn't work. It's too 'software heavy'
The amazon one is very basic, no drivers etc. the asteroid runs a simplified version of android, hence cannot accept PC-dedicated ones like the griffin one
Surely someone in the uk must stock a similar item? Cheers, David Land Rovers of all shapes S3 onwards… Daily is a 110 V8. |

Taking into account the price of the Griifin and the one below I'd bite the bullet and go for something you know works. The internet is plastered with how good the Fusion is....
Any good? http://www.westenddj.co.uk/Product/FOSTEX/...tAodWXUAOg If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!! Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |

They were NOT listed on Amazon UK when I looked earlier.
£85 delivery is appalling
Ask a US member to forward onto you and buy on Amazon US and send to them? 1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

Same here, hence why I suddenly thought they'd become available in the uk :/
Yes that's my other thought, I've also sent an email asking... Cheers, David Land Rovers of all shapes S3 onwards… Daily is a 110 V8. |
