hi calum i hav just returned the same blaupunkt back to the supplier, however i must admit it matches the vw dash very well, and has reasonably good sound too, altho i hated the volume control and it wont scroll cd text etc, i bought an alpine 9827rr today with the red buttons and blue screen, which is also a good match for my vw, but i tell u m8 the sound is bloody awsome from this unit!!!! 4x50watts,mp3,bass engine, cd text, 3 preouts, and loads of other gizmos i cant think on at da mo? a bargain for ?200 from any good dealer!! wish i had just went with my first instinct and bought the alpine . rant over
