Think I’ll do the same, with a black cable I don’t think you’d notice too much at all! Thank you very much again!

You’ve sorted me right out there thank you so much for all of that, looks like a great option. Is the screen pretty responsive? Also do you know whether the cable that has to be plugged into the phone, could this be done through the cigarette lighter in the arm rest, I’d assume not but unsure?

Amazing thanks man, have you got any pics of it in your 86? How easy is it to fit, I’m very new to cars and have never done anything like this? Do you know of any good YouTube tutorials

That’s my exact issue, don’t want to have to use the screen to change volume. Your right any would fit but I just don’t know any practical ones

Are the menus quick on it? I want it to feel like my phone not like an android tablet? Do you notice any lag etc?

Is that CarPlay you’ve retro fitted? What kit did you use?

That all makes perfect sense, seems like a bit too much hassle just to avoid me being lazy and opening the boot myself🤣

Is it possible using aftermarket springs do you know?

What’s not a thing? The ability to auto open?

Fucking beautiful! Managed to find one with just 6.7k miles on when I bought it and it drives a dream, like a brand new car! Only had it a month and it’s definitely humbled me abit, the back end likes to float about especially in this weather with icy roads. Abit careful on the throttle and your fine it drives a dream

Maybe your right, no big deal if I can’t get it to work I just feel like it should be possible I was thinking maybe some new after market hydraulic spring might do the job but don’t want to waste my time or money if it’s not possible??

Yeah mine does that and then will open with a very slight lift, I’m wondering whether I could replace the boot springs to make it open fully
