but it comes with a colour screen.  This is what interests me.
Oooo, could TB be prepared to sell his CID from the MV6 ::)

Thanks for everyone's replies and guidance :y :y

TB - Thank you, but I think when all considered it is just too much effort for limited gain, so will pass on your offer.  I will fit my acquired rear blind and just settle for that,, dealing then with the things I enjoy; pure mechanics! :D :D :D ;)

The map display and pop-up when you approach an intersection is really useful.  And the fact it shows you distance to go on the main Nav screen when in Pictorial view is a boon to save going through all the menus.

BUT if I was in your shoes, I think I agree with you.  I fitted CIDs to my fleet, as programming is not an issue for me, and to make the Omegas as good as they could be.

I fitted one to mine as it doesn't quite seem like "top of the range" without it. I think the GID screen looks very old school.  I still say if the one for sale is from a 3.2 Elite, its a very simple easy upgrade, and just need to take car and have patience when pulling the old NCDC out.
Simple plug & play apart from that.

Worth double checking RGB cable is there. But I believe LZ's is late car (hence no blind), so very likely RGB is there.

I've come across a few FL Elites without, but probably all early ones.  I know, I should really have paid more attention ;D

Just need to check the donor car had Bose, and preferably a 3.2 Ab hours work to install after that.  :y

If I was going ahead, I'm afraid the unit I was watching for sale has gone.

Thanks anyway Migv6 :y :y

The CD player was "stuck", and looking at the pictures it looked like someone had been tampering with the whole housing.  It was only the colour screen I was really interested in. ;)

I might have bought it, and just fixed the CDC3 ;)

(or knowing me, depaired it all, and sell the depaired CID for a gazillion quid on the Gay or E ;))
