*CLOSED* 7" DVD/SAT Nav GB (ROF1703N-1) - DEC'12

Yes you need a separate antenna for tv which plugs into one of the tv antenna jacks at the back of the unit. Adam: yes u can watch dvd etc whilst moving, there is an option to be able to turn that off however.

Which one would be suitable?

When I looked at the back of the unit it seemed to have an input for analog and digital tv antennas.

So I'm guessing a digital antenna would be best? I think I'm just going to try and find out

Yeah don't worry peeps I'll be the guinea pig for this one, unless someone tries before me!

Hopefully this works!!!
Im looking at doing the same thing!!!
I've seen some on eBay that have the RCA cable and it's straight plug and play!!!
Once I see the HU then I'll probs buy the antenna

the CANBUS thingy, is that for automatic or manual too ? maybe a group buy for canbus LOL ?

What I would like to know is when using navigation, is there a way to get the HU to re-route the directions if you make a wrong turn.

I decided to test this yesterday and deliberately went a different way than the nav suggested.

It constantly tried to re-route me back to where I made the wrong turn and not re-route to the destination. Maybe I've been spoilt using Google Nav, but I thought it was kind of silly that it couldn't do this.

So I need the canbus for the reversing camera???

I kid I kid
Hopefully that should clear it up before million people ask the same question

Only if you want the screen to switch to the camera automatically when you put the gear lever in reverse.

The camera itself will work without CANBUS but you will have to press the PIP button on the HU if you want the camera to be on screen. (it becomes a 2 step process)

*nb. I haven't done this yet. I have only read the above posts

[rokpapaziz]

it will do it but itll depend on how you have your GPS set. for instance if your GPS is set to find the quickest way itll dirct you to the fastest way, even if that means doing a u turn to come back to the main road. if you make a wrong turn itll automatically redirect you to get to your destination.

Cool I suspected it should work how I want it. I think I set my route setting to "fast" but I might try the other settings and see what happens
