Cheers for taking the time to do a video on this Stick, there’s so much you can do with these units. They’re not perfect but vastly better than the satnav which comes in the pre facelift models. I’ll have to do one of these too. Out of interest, will yours dim with the headlights? Mine takes a while for it to kick in.
Great video, clearly explained, many thanks. Question though....does the Xtrons unit support steering wheel controls for volume, track change etc? Thanks
Off eBay hard wire with camera built into boot handle. Had to route through boot and loom tube after that down the passenger side of the car then up through the back of the glove box. Not that hard actually plenty of plastic trim lips / carpet to hide under. Enjoy
ciao Michael Stanley il video è utilissimo , la mia FL2 ha il cablaggio con la fibra ottica , l'unità XTRONS è compatibile con la fibra ? Tu dove l'hai acquistata ? grazie
Hey Michael, did you find that the display was slightly too large for the area it sits in? I find the display bleeds behind the plastic and can mean in some scenarios that I cannot see content on the edges of the screen..
Hi John. Sorry for the late response. Had a bit of covid but back on form now. I will take some pictures and put some links in for a wiring diagram and the cable I purchased. But it's all really easy. Mike
Hi. If you buy the xtrons version pretty much you just need to open the tpms app already on the system and auto pair the sensors. If you buy a non xtrons system as I did then you need to install or download the app recommended by them. And the open it and pair. Its really easy. Be aware you need external sensors. These fit onto the outside of the valves. Internal sensors have to be fitted onto the valve internally so the valves have to be removed. Too much trouble for little gain. Hope that helps. Mike
Thanks very much for the information ordered an after market one so I'll see how it goes🤞also have you got a wiring diagram on how to wire reverse camera please?I have purchased the boot handle one thanks
Hi. This head unit is specific to the freelander 2 but I do know there a Sony unit here's the link. Hope that's useful.

Hi Michael does the Tmps unit you purchased plug in and play ?
Great video, clearly explained, many thanks. Question though....does the Xtrons unit support steering wheel controls for volume, track change etc? Thanks
Not directly, sound works ok but not track change, there is a module out in the interweb that will do it, but not top of my list
Great video what reversing camera did you buy and was routing difficult?
Off eBay hard wire with camera built into boot handle. Had to route through boot and loom tube after that down the passenger side of the car then up through the back of the glove box. Not that hard actually plenty of plastic trim lips / carpet to hide under. Enjoy
Great video, where can this unit be bought, I've searched the model mentioned but can't find that model PDX79DLRL???

Hi Michael,
Great video. How did you run the cable for the rear view camera ? And what length did you need

Hi TPMS UNIT uses senors on the valves which send to reader unit that connects via one of the usb ports
