    Good product

    Having purchased this product to upgrade a 2014 mercedes GLA, the product met my expectations. Complete wiring but still needs to buy a FAKRA adapter to avoid cutting the original harness. You will also need to solder the 16 speaker wires to this adapter.
    Once plugged in. big difference. The cabinet plays its role without making the whole car vibrate. We really appreciate being able to create high pass filters for the speakers and even play on the time shift to give a little more scene on the driver. Not being a professional in this field, I only regret that there is no external microphone to calibrate in car.
