Rather strange question, but during the winter I often drive wearing gloves, due to early/late starts meaning it's very cold - can the touch screen still be operated whilst wearing gloves?!! :smiley:

Doubtful, unless you have some of those designed for touch screen, like the north face etip or similar.
-
the touch screen on the RCD / RNS units is resistive (not capacitive) therefore it operates based on touch pressure.. i.e. you can wear boxing gloves and still (attempt) to operate it if you like :happy2: its a different sort of screen than what's on modern smartphones.

That's why it isn't as responsive as the Apple kit then.

I see, so it will work with gloves! That's what I was hoping, thankyou.

I have read that new generations of OEM stereos will feature capacitive screens, such as the new Golf, recent peugots, citroens, toyotas et al.
