That 10BT might not work in an S2/V6 because of the overhang above the head unit. Apparently if you have a flip front the unit can need to sit out a little so the screen can clear it. Flip fronts also hit the indicator stall apparently. I'd very much like to find a solution that works.
My vx came with a screen that flipped out. The installer just built a module so that the unit sat out a bit from the dash plate and thus cleared lip.
Main issue for me was how much light flooded the cabin when driving at night so I removed it.
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.
....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Some have a display off mode?
But yes. I even switch ours off in the Octavia!

I found this picture of a one din unit with the monitor out in an Exige. The covering of the top vents concerns me.
I have just noticed the volume controls, but not sure if that is on the new cars or it’s an auxiliary volume control that comes with the updated headunit.

Those are Ford audio controls.
