Just a cheapo Chinese one. Works ok though volume is slightly on the low side and you need to charge it from time to time.
You don't get any track info on the car display either.
I'm currently working on a better solution ;)
I went for this one in the end. Lets see how it performs.

Ouch!!!
Reminds me of when my mate's wife smashed the side of their car in on a stone bridge on Dartmoor, "I don't understand how it happened, the front of the car went through the gap ok."

Exactly what I've done with the 230.

I found this electrical socket thing in the glove box, I assume it's to plug in something?? Any ideas.

That connection in the glove box is the Aux in.
Not sure on the other as ours is older so a bit different.
