My 2011 Partner Tepee B9, only have a display screen like the first photo, it is very simple and no aux, no bluetooth. So can I change the radio to something like the second one to have more functions? Will it fit the 2011 model? As I see this device is equipped on models after 2012 facelift. Thank you.

Looking at the various replies from previous asks, yes it is possible but it needs coding to your vehicle otherwise it will not work. If you search the forum using just the word radio and then look at the replies for the B9 model it will give you an idea.
General consensus here on the forum a few years ago was that while it was possible to upgrade to the higher spec radio unit a better (and likely cheaper) option was to install an aftermarket Android unit. A forum search will bring up the discussion and links to several installation experiences.
Good Luck
Matt

I'd debate that slightly.
I've bought an RD45, display etc for £55, and will probably sell the RD4 on eBay to recoup a few £.
Main thing is - unless the seller will code it for you, you MUST have a copy of Diagbox for this to work. If you don't already have that, the finances get much closer to a cheapish android unit plus some interface boxes.
All I wanted was a cheap way to play MP3s, stream music from my phone, and have handsfree, I already have Diagbox, so a net £30 plus some of my time is fine for that.

The other simpler and cheaper way is to replace the original RD4 radio with a more advanced aftermarket radio like Pioneer. You will need to add a CanBus decoder Connectis2 from Ebay and an adapted to antenna wire "Fakra male to DIN".
In this way, all the functions that were controlled from the original radio (clock set, date set) will move to a control stalk under the steering wheel.
Thank you very much everyone. Sorry I had a due in the past days so I didn't respond at time. Thank you for your advice, it is so complex and I will buy some CDs and a CD burner instead lol.
