There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
2. Lack of mounting brackets delayed my install, but I was pleased to see that the control head mounting uses magnets. I bought a longer cable and mounted the control head on my Car's (Mustang) overhead console, with the radio in the trunk. Worked out very well.
The display on the control console is terrible. Instead of light-up characters, the background is lit. Aht lights up the interior of the car at night, is harder to read quickly (while driving) because of eye adjustment, etc. It would look and function SO MUCH BETTER if the characters were lit, on a dark background. This is my biggest disappointment.
