Ahhh I'm not sure you can do it then on a midline dash or that's what I'm led to believe.

I know the Kenwood has a mapping function so you are supposed to hold down a button on the steering wheel and then you can map it to a function on the headunit. Mine does nothing when you hold the button however. Im wondering if this is because I have a Connect 2 Canbus adaptor?

Sorry I've no idea I only know mine works how I've described, I'm still more inclined to think it's because you have the midline rather than the highline dash.

Hi All,
 I just got myself a long awaited LWB Spacegear 1996, any ideas on a UK equivelant to the
Kenwood DBX 8000 MJ, and do you have to rip them out and replace to get any signal in the UK etc?

Thanks
