post in help section, a mod can move it for you. (as to post in there is 250 post required) But for wanted ads they usually get moved, worth saying if you want a NCDC2013 or 2015?

It's worth mentioning that the displays are paired with the head units for security so you must either get a matched pair out of the same car or a pair which have been put into "delivery mode". In the latter case they will need to be paired after installation using a Tech 2. Not necessarily a problem as there are a few of us dotted around the country who could do the work.

A pair which have been paired (IYSWIM) but not to each other will not be any use.

Sometimes you need some of the wiring from head unit to display as it's not installed in the car at the factory. You will also need to provide a GPS antenna somewhere on the car. Normally a little patch antenna on or under the dashboard will work fine.

As Tunnie says, find out what you want and make up a "wanted" advert in the test zone and we'll mode it into "Parts for sale / Wanted" for you. :y

Being an 03 3.2 elite shouldn't it have Sat-Nav built in?

after repairing my 2013 unit i decided to treat it to an up to date map disc.
not sure how true this is but the 2010 map will be the last one for the ncdc units?
something else to consider before the expense.

Not sure how... I'm sure they'll still be burning the discs for "other" sat navs ;)
