Did you ever figure out how to get your premium bezel to work?
I have started programming what i need, but havent finished yet. Once it is done, the ac and steering wheel controls should work

is there any way we could get one of these. possibly without the brackets on the back. I would like to go about having a new entertainment screen another way. But this face plate would be perfect for what im trying to do.I would be glad to give you extra for it. I have a premium pp gt rt now but I will be trading it when I get back from my deployment for one with a base radio.
btw this thread is awesome and I love how you integrated everything.
Got a bezel for the base model mocked up. It is not finished yet plus I need final dimensions from my screen which should be here tomorrow. From what I have been able to do (using my mother's Flex) this screen is gonna be one tight fit... I mean TIGHT.... But it should fit.

Yes.
What the service is used does is ask any questions I may have, purchase the item. check that it's the quality I want and is complete. Send me whatever pics I want. Rebox and ship.they pickup up yesterday...well, today. And will now ship. They get a % commission. But felt safer this way. $ stays in escrow with Alipay until I receive. So they work fast. Not sure how that works with the seller...
Where did you kick this process off from? I'm interested in picking up one of the kit you ordered. Also by chance did they say if it's configurable to english and with US map data? Thanks.

Google Taobao buying service. I used FOCUS. Used once a long time ago with no issue. They charge 10%, but the shipping is cheaper, so works out to be about an extra $52 from ordering direct. The shipping and customs is the issue. It has to be done correct. On Taobao, search for Mustang GPS. there are multiple items available.
Yes, confirmed US map and English interface. No English manual. But Google translate does a good job.

Thank you much. I didn't realize the Focus site was a separate service/site altogether. That made things much easier.

Now let's see how long this'll take to arrive over DHL.

Man...all I want is a big-@$$ screen for the back up cam. After driving our EXSport, I can't see squat anymore when I take out the GT.

BTW...a bit OT, [MENTION=6944]zackmd1[/MENTION]...did you finish your toggle switch project?

Thanks for the link.

Tier 2, are there different ones? Sorry if your project has been discussed before. Mods really need to sticky these types of threads so they don't get buried. :tsk:
