Basic Aerodynamics question - Bikes Roof or Back
I normally travel with bikes on the roof and a big feck of house on wheels on the back so this wouldn't normally be a concern :). Planning a summer road trip without the Caravan and wondering whether it's more economical to have the bikes on the back or the roof. I know it's pence but I'm from Yorkshire, I also like to know these things

Nah that can't be right. 70% of Ali express stuff comes direct from china and some from warehouses in EU. Surely we can still get things?

How do I turn off manoeuvre braking assist?
Ah, it was hooked up but not to the electrics as I was moving it within the compound. Could be that

How do I turn off manoeuvre braking assist?
Just gone to move my caravan to another storage plot and repeatedly have myself whiplash. Aaaarrrggh. Im sure this very annoying feature is brilliant if it doesn't think you're constantly trying to reverse into a caravan. Ffs

Successfully fit the ug in and play unit this morning. Here are my tips from a complete amateur point of view.. Start front end to back. DO NOT Disconnect the airbag switch if you take out the glovebox surround, guide says be careful too but don't be like me and just discon it. Test the camera at the front end before removing the boot trim. Cheap trim removal tools will suffice and you will need some sort of cable rod for pushing the cable through into the boot. I used net curtain wire for this. Once tested remove boot trim. When you get to the boot along the roof you will need WD40 to push the cable through the rubber trunking. I tried for ages without and it wasn't budging. Hope my failures help someone. Brilliant guide thank you. Alan

It's the plug and play version so I'm sure its had the same effect. That gives me some confidence its not completely buggered.

So I cocked up and removed the airbag switch connector... my recommendation is Do Not Do That Everything removed and airbag error reset. however... im back to standard and I keep getting the error "park pilot not currently available" and when I reverse there's a delay on the screen and I then have to touch the screen to get the normal reverse sensor warnings up... its as if adding a cam then removing it has confused it into thinking there's still a camera attached. Any way of resetting that? Hoping when I reconnect the camera it sorts out the park pilot not available issue.

Hello, Unit arrived today amazing service So I set to work testing the kit was the correct one, quickly dismantled the glove box and lower dash (glove box surround).... Where I failed (and I now think I know how) was finding where the harness plugged into and what it plugged into... I had assumed it went into the back of the screen somewhere and was struggling to get to it, that's what I thought the removal keys were for? Am I now right in thinking the harness plugs into the actual media unit (CD SD player)? and if it is is the block of wires at the back right (if I was looking at the unit head on) the bit I need to remove? Does the whole block come out of the unit or a number of seperate bits? Sorry for been a bit useless haha. Cheers Alan

On the Auto trader ad it did say umbrella under drivers seat in the spec sheet... but there's no actual umbrella. Should I do the honourable thing and moan at them 🤔
