I realise this topic keeps cropping up and I'm sorry to bring it up again. I've read through a bunch of very helpful threads, including the ones below.
viewtopic.php?t=58078 (I read through this whole thread, but skimmed the section about upgrading speakers)
viewtopic.php?t=61437
viewtopic.php?t=65396
They have answered a lot of the questions I originally had, however, I'm still confused about the version of screen I need. The first link says "software greater than V.71" on page 12. Does that mean V0.71 or V71? My current display for my RD4 is V71.3 (pic below), would this suffice or do I need to get a new screen?
Thanks for any help.

Re: C5 X7 RD4 to RD45 upgrade screen question.
Hello. I did the upgrade in one of the threads you linked. My research at the time told me that the screen HAD to be changed too, otherwise it wouldn't work. I'd like to link where I got that info from but it was a long time ago

Re: C5 X7 RD4 to RD45 upgrade screen question.
Sorry this is a bit late, I must of missed this. What he meant was Version 71.*, so hard to say if V71.3 will cut the mustard or not.the-termin8r wrote: ↑08 Jan 2023, 14:21 They have answered a lot of the questions I originally had, however, I'm still confused about the version of screen I need.

Re: C5 X7 RD4 to RD45 upgrade screen question.
I think that mine is 71.3 72.01, and that is compatible with the RD 45.

Re: C5 X7 RD4 to RD45 upgrade screen question.
Forgot to update this thread a while back. Ended up picking up a screen and HU from Aliexpress. They both work, but the HU needed a full teardown and 3-week air-out because it absolutely reeked of cigarette smoke. Other than that, all is fine. My stock screen didn't support bluetooth as it turned out.

Re: C5 X7 RD4 to RD45 upgrade screen question.
I just checked and mine is a 72.01 (which is compatible). I will correct the post above.
