Just added this to power outlet in boot. (obviously can use the one in the car, but I wanted it out of sight.

Broadcasts to FM, can set this.

Plays music clearly from Android or IPhone, you need to pick the correct version.

Can plug audio lead into it to.

Clever thing is on the old Alpine stereo, it actually says Nexus 7 on the green display when I connect it to the Bluetooth, cool!

Anyway, really easy upgrade.

You paid through the nose for that, buy direct from China for a fraction of the cost.

True, but it worked first time. Too many problems with Chinese rubbish, if it actually arrives and the manual is in English. No come back if it goes wrong.

Not true, what you bought was almost certainly made in China and just has a large UK mark up on it. I buy loads of stuff direct from China, never had a problem, defective units replaced if required. You do have to take care what you buy as there is some rubbish for sale even when it's rebranded in the UK.

Fair enough.
