Just to restart this thread, I bought one at a decent discount and fitted this week. This is the Kramer unit as made for various OEM's.

It came with the standard two ISO plugs rather than one that links to the main grey block. Anyway Mudstuff to the rescue with a quick 24hr delivery of an adaptor lead. It was pain to tuck all the connector blocks, GPS receiver, Microphone out of the way with no room for fingers behind - but thats not unique to this unit.

It really does look good, quality of controls is excellent. It's great to have DAB, and can USB or BT stream from my phone, calls are fine and phone book transfer was quick.

Thorny subject of screen size - I find the graphics absolutely fine, large font for radio/music and phone and most of the operations can be either touch screen or from the turn and select RH knob. Nav is a bit small but perfectly useable, partic if you have voice commands on too

One downside is that there is no sub- output, so I need to get a splitter box, to revive the Alpine sub-dog
Overall pretty happy
