+1 for PS, I have them on my S2000 and on the previous Golf-R

So long as the damage isn't too deep you can get them recut fairly reasonably. Even a couple of times. But there is a limit to how much metal they can remove. I had the diamond cuts on my Golf-R refurbished once, the second time they were damaged (by Costco tyre fitters) I had them welded to...

What has changed of course is who may have access to that data.

I remember a number of years ago there was murder on Anglesey. The police evidence included data from Range Rover that detailed the killers journey in his Discovery to the location, and even what time he opened the tailgate when he got there to take the crossbow out. That was back in 2019 iirc...

I've had it the other way around. The bank called me about something and asked me to provide security details to prove I was the account holder. I said, you've called me on my mobile phone, I don't know you from Adam, you tell me some of my security details, so I know you're genuine. Stalemate!

You can buy off-the-shelf drop-in kits for Kombis from a few companies now - including Aus I think

It's pretty straight forward, but wordy to describe... First download the .apks you want to your USB drive. Ignore the signing etc, that is only if you customise the app yourself. 1. Enable USB Debugging in Android Settings You need to get the on-screen keyboard to display, so use something...

I may just drop a launcher altogether, I'm only using the MG4Control, so I have set the swipe up control to launch that, and I have everything I need.

All installed, at last no disabling three settings every time I get in the car! The Nova launcher isn't behaving as I'd like, the icon size adjustment range has a smaller maximum it will reach every time I try and adjust them. I'm going to stop now before they disappear into a black hole and...

Thanks, I'll give that try today. I think I'll try and get the swipe loader installed first then use that to install MG4Control.

Any reports from people that have installed this? The installation instructions on GitHub are a bit vague, is there a more explicit guide?

The cruise in my Golf R was great, the MG4 all but unusable unless the road is clear. Even then it brakes whenever you go over the brow of hill. Constantly braking and accelerating, it's like it was written by a school student as their first IT project.

Anything above -70 dBm should be ok for low volume traffic like this, -30 is really good, -50 is good.

USA (and India for some features) only at the moment though. The new immersive AI navigation looks pretty! The AI-powered EV charging features are for cars using Android Auto, presumably because they then have access to live battery SoC and consumption rate.

Could it be they are triggering the rear collision warning which does flash the indicators (rapidly) - all of them, but they would probably only see the ones on the side closest to them. I've switched it off as it was always triggering at traffic lights when cars passed close by in the next lane.
