Screen

[hambo_12]

Hi, I was recently in an xr6t and the owner had a sceen in the dash that is an option I think. It is a square about 15 x 15 cm. Is this standard, or part of the premium or prestige sound option?

OK, I'll have a crack at this ... please forgive me if I get it wrong, but I'm not that technical.

The screen in the dash is for a few things and does common as standard on XR6's.

It's called the ICC or Integrated Command Centre (I hope?) and controls your audio system and satellite navigation if you have it.

With the audio, you can get standard sound (as standard), prestige or premium options. Prestige comes with a 6-stack CD player and B&W screen, while Premium comes with 6-stack, colour screen and 150w sub plus 11 speakers ... :o

You can also get aftermarket systems for Blaupunkt that add functionality to the standard system, e.g., in-dash DVD, VCD, MP3, SatNav, etc., etc.,

Hope this helps, and hope I didn't mislead you.

Since your buying a ute hambo_12 you can forget about the color screen, you can only option from standard to prestige sound in the ute, which is basically going from single disc to six disc in dash changer for $600, in my opinion a huge waste of money!

My main question was, do you get the same sized screen with the standard sound system? I have heard that it is only a pissy little screen that looks stupid....

As far as I'm aware the standard and the prestige screen are the same size.

Pretty sure it's the same size reguardless of the option, standard, prestige or premium.

There was some talk about the screen size being difference in NZ? Buried away in a thread somewhere?

Premium has the larger color screen.

Large(Borrowed from Mondies old one.{I think})

Small (standard - Pissylittle screen that looks stupid{as fitted to mine} ) Do agree though. :D

So is there any way that you can get the 10x better colour screen on the ute? Cause the standard one looks

No same size. But Ford in it's wisdom only has the Turbo with premium sound as standard in NZ. The XR6 has it as an option. Not sure why could be to do with NZ being more supportive to Ford over the years but I doubt it.
