So, I assume the T7109A is capacitive but time will tell.

@2forme I want to test the unit before installing. Is the best way to get an AC transformer (we have 240V AC here) to 12V DC converter and wire that up to the Head Unit. Then I can root it and check the apps work before pulling my dash apart. If this is the best option what output transformer do I need - 12V and what other specs?

Your best bet would probably be to just run wires to a 12V battery, either take the one out of your car or if you have one laying around somewhere.

If you chose to go the transformer route it'll probably be a little pricey, you'd have to find a step down transformer to step 240V AC down to 12VAC and then it will need rectifier capabilties to rectify it from AC to DC.. PITA.
