QP GTS Stereo Options

[AbidK]

My car has what I believe is the standard stereo, but I have also seen some cars with a Bose version. Does anyone know if the BOSE version has Bluetooth audio streaming or DAB please?

Streaming and DAB are not available.
You can, however, add a dongle if you've got the USB slot in the glove box. That will at least give streaming. You can also install a Parrot type hands free kit comparatively easily which will give streaming, hands free and iPod control.

To add Bluetooth Streaming.

I inherited one of these from Athol. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/153346229557

Plugs right into the iPod 30 pin cable.

Or just bite the bullet and install Apple Car Play / Android auto....(search the forum for more on this option)

Is this the system
You had installed?

Yup - bought the kit from Naviplus in Australia and had it fitted - there is a video post install on the forum and you retain the stock look of the car. Waze in your Maser with Spotify - gotta to be the way to go!

Right so 7 days of trying to convince myself it’s ok I can get used to this stock stereo! I miss DAB and I miss Bluetooth audio streaming from my iPhone.

Better get on to Naviplus, does anyone stock this in the UK? If not what’s the lead time?

Just seen this on evay

Is it the same company?

 

[Devonboy]

Yup - but would send them an email with a photo of your current infotainment system and let them to tell you the kit to order!

Naviplus Apple car play system works pretty well. Only "frozen" once, so it seems pretty stable. My installer thought the instructions were shocking though with wiring instructions and colours not mirroring what he was looking at behind the dash. Sorted when they sent "updated" fitting instructions ! . So if anyone is the North West is thinking of installing a unit then Formby Car Electrics are your guys. http://www.formbycarelectrical.co.uk/Formby_Car_Electrical/Welcome.html

Agree - you need peeps who have done this before - Prestige Installs in St Albans for those down sarf.... they have no done 8 so far...and often help other pros with the instructions- which are designed for the GranTurismo and are awful....
