Plug and play I think I can cope with. This level of work, not for me. Hats off to you Ronin...

Yeah unfortunately none of the headunits available will be plug and play as the D2 is unique on many levels..

I have met up with MJ at her amazin workshop to do some other mods and once we have everything finalised I think we will create another more concise thread with a simple how to, depending on what head unit/setup you want to go with.

If this radio didn't cost so much I would have given up too, but I already stepped into this mess with one foot so I might as well take it through to completion and make other people's lives easier.
