Hi guys just cruzing Ebay USA and came across this add on. Do you think this would work on ours and what would we lose with ours? Check it out any way see what you think. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Car-D...ht_2163wt_1167

I'd guess it's the same unit that was brought up a while ago, as this item is actually located in China. It appears to have a different look to it as apposed to the ones that are usually floating about eBay, but it could be a revised skin? It uses TomTom maps, so you'd be able to update it. My guess however the interface, wording, translations and the fact it's an aftermarket kit from China with loads of kit, at a relativly cheap price and no branding on it, well I think it'd be more trouble than it's worth. Also trying to get our Voice Control module to relate to it could be iffy.
If it's a decent unit however, I'd definitly look at it. Doesn't seem to be any reviews of videos of the actual unit being used, well not that I can find?

My guess. Wait for SYNC, it comes with so much, My Ford, Touch, Pandora and it connects perfectly with BlackBerry, and hopefully iPhone soon. Future Fiesta models should get this. It looks a darn sight better than this too. Though, a simple skin could fix this system. It seems to integrate with the control well enough though?
