TrafficMaster

[kayjas]

I saw a photo of a C5 with a cup holder to the right of the steering wheel. Exactly where my annoying trafficMaster sits. How easy would it be to install a cup holder here. Not sure if its available as a spare.
Cheers all

Never available as an accessory (but much needed IMO ). The one you saw was probably a DIY job.

[myglaren]

Cup holder would be a damn sight more useful than Trafficmaster.
Quieter too,

I guess you remember too Steve going along the motorway and then she pops up with "Twaffic Flowing Fweely" !!

[myglaren]

Mine was out of funds even on the first C5 but it did used to nag at me and let me know I had to cough up some cash to get it to work - fat chance.

[GiveMeABreak]

Same here, except I coughed up and then realised the nuggets couldn't be arsed to put up any blue transmitters past the M4!! Oh well...

[myglaren]

I have never, ever, seen one of their "Blue Boxes" so couldn't imagine it being much use.

[GiveMeABreak]

Yep, they replaced them with yellow SPECS cameras instead - much more profitable !!

Did anyone ever come up with a definitive way to bypass the damn thing to stop it interrupting the radio?

[GiveMeABreak]

Yes - shove a cup holder in there instead!

[Stickyfinger]

Shotgun ?

[Paul-R]

I was thinking more on the lines of identifying which wires go through the TrafficMaster unit so that they can bypass it.

[Captain Slow]

It's obsolete now isn't it?

[Paul-R]

Which makes it even more annoying that it can interrupt the radio for having the temerity to start-stop-start the engine too quickly. And then you have to listen to the whole pointless spiel of "To subscribe ring... yadda yadda yadda". Just shut-up and get out of my life.
