sorry I haven`t replied earlier, but I have been making further investigations. the display does show with this unit. my investigations have found that this cars head unit has was swopped by an independant car dealer with head unit on a cd model. I even have the reg of the other vehicle, not sure how this helps lol. this was done cos the dealer thought the cdr 2007 looked nicer so he put it my elite and put the ccr 2006 BOSE programed unit in the cd. next question is any idea how to trace the other vehicle. also I am told by a member in devon that you are authority on tech 2 and have full tech 2 capability. can any ccr2006 be changed to BOSE. He also suggested that I could damage my BOSE system with this head unit. Your help and thoughts on this would be appreciated. Sorry using pda today that doesn`t support smilies, so no smiley.
Yes, I have the facilities to reconfigure ccr2006 to Bose -

Now we know you have a MID, that means your original factory fit stereo would have been a CCR2006 (which any dealer could have told you by looking up your VIN/Reg on EPC), though if you're using Crownhill's, they don't know their arse from their elbow in my experience.
So, acquire a known working CCR2006 from somewhere, and put it in place of your cdr2005, and reprogram (via Tech2) if it didn't come from a Bose equipped Omega.
