It made a huge difference for me I was even considering a newer Aston just to get the updated interior. I also feel since I was able to connect my iPhone x with Bluetooth for phone and music as well as installing a Wi-Fi mirroring kit so I can have my Waze on the OEM screen I cant ask for anything else. The car has been great.

hey who did that wifi mirror kit? Im in los angeles and looking to do something similar! thanks.

I'm looking at this one

naviks.com/i-22774481-2006-2011-aston-martin-vantage-navigation-video-interface.html

I've talled with the owner and got install manual...i don't want Bluetooth or wifi because I'm using Alexa for music interface and want to use a rear view mirror monitor... likely going a cable route to my phone
