Looks like the pre '04 DSP's work with the N6, and that was my fear. Although Jeff thinks it shouldn't be the case. We shall see.

I'm cool as a cucumber over here... I really do hope he makes good with what was said ( or not said ) and I am eager to see how this pans out, as I like all of you would like to upgrade my DSP radio to something more modern.

Sorry to cause such an uproar

This is great news.... I'm very excited about this unit.
Hey, four.8is, I would like to know in all honesty, if there is any glaring in bright daylight. Can the unit be seen, or do you need to find a position to see what's on the screen? The older units, the luminosity & glaring of the screen was pretty bad. Need an honest opinion.

Thanks

DayVue antireflective film: Will increasing the screen brightness when outdoors will also help as well as working under shade to prevent direct sun on the screen.

You gotta be shitting me. Jeff literally emailed me to tell me it now works with DSP in North America, and Europe cars are fine with it.

Steering wheel controls don't work either?

Are you sure it doesn't need a firmware update?

Ok guys I clearly might have done something wrong.Jeff said if it wouldn't have worked with DSP, the sound would turn off in 40 sec.
That's not the case with mine.
I indeed have not installed the steering wheel control module and that's because there was no plug to use it with.
I asked Jeff for a complete install video or PDF .At this point I'm sure I've done something wrong but I don't see where...I'll try to email him a few pictures and show him my install step by step.maybe we will figure it out .
I took off work just to make this thing work lol
Stay tuned , I'm positive we will make it work.
