Does this system support both FM and DAB+ digital radio?
Yes, standard FM radio is built-in and works directly with your vehicle's factory radio antenna.
For digital DAB+ reception, you can easily add support depending on your car's setup:

Can the button backlight colors be customized?
Yes. You can customize the physical button backlighting to match your vehicle's interior dashboard lighting. While default illumination is typically set to red, you can select and adjust colors directly within the system display settings.
