On first sight this looks cool with a very impressive speck but the more I look at their web site, the more I question it's internal integrity & quality . I've spent five minutes searching their web pages and the most important question of how much the unit costs, remains unanswered. Despite being a single DIN mount you'll still have to relocate the Climate Control unit, lower down... makes U wonder

Matt, just spoken with the guys at the UK distributors www.ttints.co.uk they have one on test at the moment, they will not be released in UK until end of March. Quoted me £600 installed, £550 boxed with 12m warranty.They are of course made in China, but the guys reckons they are really good ! well he would, but I did say that it wouldnt be worth his while supplying something that people would be bringing back in on a daily basis, and funnily enough he agreed with that little nugget !!

£600 installed is pretty tempting as long as they move the climate control down etc. Will be a good solution as long as it's reliable. Better than having to pay 2k for Alpine/Pioneer for a similar unit.

I checked the distributor's website here locally and it was about NZ$1190 uninstalled.

With the factory Nav you also have to move the climate control panel.

For the price it is a cheaper alternative compared to retrofitting the factory Nav unit and this definitely has quite a few more functions.

So who wants to be the guinea pig and tell everyone else how good or bad this thing is?

I think some people on e46fanatics or m3forum are looking into it all. One said that the product was not ready for launch as there are a lot of bugs.
