Aftermarket Digital Cluster - Guinea Pig

[jayc001]

Fitted mine yesterday. No issues installing, everything seems good but (and this is a big but for me) there doesn't seem any ability to control phone calls via the cluster. You can scroll to the phone section, press OK and it will call the last dialled number but there's no ability to scroll previous dialled or received numbers like there was on MFD.

This is a major flaw for me as I spend 20+ hours a week behind the wheel and make a lot of calls. Now it seems I have to press the phone button on Discover media and use the crappy interface on there which is clunky, has no option to navigate via MFSW controls and loses my android auto screen so I can't see Waze.

To be honest this is such a big gripe for me I may well change back to original cluster.

That's the plan. I've not had a good look at the display yet but hopefully it will be straight forward enough.

it's not that bad without a matte film....the sun is of course worse. I've had the matte film for about a month and no bubbles form, the second thing is that it protects against scratches. but it's a matter of what you like more. otherwise, if you remove the 4 screws on the cluster, you only have the display and you can cut the film however you want

For the record for any future readers - in my guinea pig setup, I use Apple Car play for nav and phone both from my aftermarket Sony head unit.
