Monitor pack details?

[Richy_Boy]

Hi all, has anyone got any details on the Monitor Pack for a RS 200? i.e. full features of what it can show? I've seen some vague details on the Megane version, but I hear the Clio one is a bit different.

Pictures would be cool too.. there doesn't seem to be ANYTHING on the web, inclusing the renaultsport website!?

Thanks, Rich

Well worth it if you want the Bluetooth and upgraded radio anyway, it isn't much difference.

Poor pics, but you get the idea.

G-meter
Laptimer
0-60 & 1/4 mile
2 different engine displays

Awesome thanks Mike.. does it also double as a display for the stereo? i.e. radio stations, track numbers etc? Also... can it display ipod track names?

Sorry for all the questions, I've put it as an option for a clio order without knowing anything about it!

Yes, you flick between the normal radio display and the RSMonitor by the controls on the column. The display itself is very good, you can cycle through albums and tracknames just like on your ipod. Finding stuff in your phonebook etc is dead easy and the quality of the hands free via bluetooth is one of the best I've used.

Only thing I don't like is the laptimer isn't GPS, you have to manually click it as you pass the start/finish.

It doesn't have some of the Megane features, so you can't alter ESP and throttle settings with it.

Awesome... so it is useful when not showing stats.. I was tempted by the tomtom, but having seen it in the flesh it's a little big for my liking. Planning to get a decent HTC Desire cradle for sat nav now.

Roll on Febuary...

I didn't much care for the TomTom, I'll just use my iPhone if I get lost - what's the point in having 2 satnavs?
