The aux for the music, the usb to power the unit.

Just ordered it, I'll get it next week I'll post pictures and a review.

They added a unique new menu with all the ac functions and car setting with a up to date interface.

Very excited about this its android based 8 core 4, 64 gb.

Check this out...zoom in the picture there's the new menu.


that’s great. Can’t wait to see the results.

Sure buddy here goes, this unit came out last week I can't comment anything yet, I'll get it next week, I'll keep you guys updated.

The listing says 2012-2015 but it's very clear by the pictures, it's not.

I have been in contact with the seller, he sent me a picture of the harness it's compatible with fiber optic and, according to the seller it works with bowers and wilkins, amp.

Nice - definitely also interested in the outcome of this - I have a 2010 with the B&W setup and had avoided the "2012-2015" options assuming that it would be incompatible. Also interested to know if it supports control of the climate seats, as I can't see that in the screenshots, only the dual-zone climate control.

​​​​​​That's my concern as well, I spoke to the seller, and they said it supports heated steering and climate seats, and car config.

Totally the, 2012 is a different system won't work on prefacelift, they got the years wrong in the listing title, we can clearly see the pictures are prefacelift.

If it ends up working, maybe ask the seller to edit the details so it’s easier for people to find. Thanks for taking the time to research this.

Yes it's the right dash, but wrong years, lets hope it works with our Denso units, I'm sure they would sell loads in the UK if it all works as we hope!

Seller has hundreds of different models for different cars, they have some mix-ups, after I placed the order i had to send a picture of my dash denso unit, they confirmed it with the engineer so definitely the years are wrong in the listing.
I have a picture of the wireharness, but can't upload here for some reason, the the connectors are correct.

There are at least two different stereo systems on the 2010-11 XF. Does it support them all?

Interested to know if reversing camera cuts in on the screen correctly. And does it still use oem microphone for calls? On the F Type the model people are using has its own microphone and call quality is poor
