Good evening All
Thank you for the compliments on the car.
Telwick - I've got the full Miltek exhaust system (4-2-1 manifold, Sports Cat and dual exhaust), its not as loud as the Piper range, it has a nice bubbling noise but not seriously loud that driving becomes uncomfortable. I got the full kit fitted at Puma Speed.

Could you shed some light on the headunit please
Is the new fascia the one from pioneer?
Does the new headunit sync with the bluetooth & handsfree?
Can you still access the powerfold mirrors, lane change signal etc menus and see warnings on the screen?

Good Morning All
Ben - in response to your question regarding syncing with bluetooth and hands free I'm not sure coz my car never came with these options hence why I bought this particular unit. Originally I had a parrot hands free kit, a TomTom and a jack lead from the back of the factory unit that connected to the iPod via its headphone socket - this complete set up was messy so I decided to do away with all that and buy one unit that did everything, I'm not gonna lie double din SatNav units are not cheap but it does make the car look a lot more tidy. One downside to this particular unit, it doesn't have voice activation which is a bummer, the only Unit that does have voice activation is a Pioneer model but that retails over £1200. I'm assuming if you already have voice activation set up on your car then I doubt an aftermarket head unit will work but your best bet is to get in touch with the technical guys, Alpine have a technical team you can email and they respond usually within 24hrs e:
support@alpine-electronics.co.uk
I'm not sure about your question regarding the powerfold mirrors and lane changing signals, menus etc.
Thank you

Ben - btw the fascia is not from Pioneer, its an item thats available from an independent supplier, dont know name but audio shops should have contacts, if you google Fiesta mk7 headunit fascia the details should come up.
I hope that helps

Absolutely love that exhaust and diffuser.
Did it take much work? I would definitely be interested in putting a dual exhaust on mine, not one that's Lamborghini loud though, because I do a few motorway miles.
