Agree. I couldn’t recommend the Grom unit enough. The screen definitely feels clunky at times but not enough to really bother me AND I’m using wireless CarPlay in an ‘04 car… and it still looks original.

Vapor Blue Metalic too 👌

Today I replaced my AHC accumulator globes and flushed the system with fresh fluid. Really happy with the ride quality but haven’t got techstream so don’t know the levels. Thats next on my list. Mind you, this was after I had the Major 300000klm (timing belt) service done which was supposed to...
