You can't stream music over BT with the cd400.
What the unit I'm selling does is give you BT (comes with BT module) it's also pre-programmed to have USB and DAB fitted at a later date if you wanted. USB would save you needing CD's as you could connect your phone via USB or even have a USB with all your music on. The USB kit (cheapest price I could find is £196 + P&P) I could most likely do far cheaper.

But it is like factory fitment all the parts are genuine Vauxhall parts (apart from the loom), but I use high quality microphone cable whereas vauxhall just use bog standard wires.

Hi, is your car a 5 door?
I guess being a 2013 its a facelift?
I only ask as my pre facelift 5 door has a spacesaver in it - I think its the same wheel, but with a smaller size tyre 115/70-16

I've just put both those tyre sizes into a tyre size calculator.
it says the 135/90 is 82mm (or3.23 inches) bigger diameter than the 115/70 which may the reason it doesn't fit?
did you get it from Vauxhall?

Sorry, I've just noticed it says your in north devon.
I'm in Bideford.
I've found that Parkside/County Vauxhall are OK for basic stuff, but have no idea about upgrades or accessory fitment. probably the same for most GM dealers from what I can see.

Guys,  Ive just bought a used space saver for my 15 plate J 2.0 CDTI and its a 115/70/16, and it drops in neatly.  With the dimensions you give as a 135, I have to ask is it a full sized wheel?  you say it doesnt fit the well, do you mean diameter wise or it goes in but sits high above the boot floor and the boot board cant lie flat and sits on the wheel...  A full sized wheel will NOT fit the well.  I have read threads on here where some owners have dropped a full sized wheel in but then put blocks either side for the boot baseboard to rest on.  Sure if you trawl through you'll find the same posts.
