SV6 Upgraded headunit and stero system.

Yes it does. I have a reverse camera so that over rides the parking senor display.

I dont suppose you'd know if it would accept inputs for front sensors?

its a video input so can't see why not??..but if you planning a camera on the front make sure you dont buy one thats reverse's the image

Not a camera, front park assist sensors like a Calais V. The display shows which sensor is detecting something and how close it is.

Wow your quick on the uptake!

I suppose this mod doesn't apply to Omega's considering the difference in HU sizes?

Omega's can be done as well, they are all the same size.

Except for the Statesman and Caprice versions, they are completely different.

I thought the calais HU was a lot bigger than the Omega (extra screen space etc)? Or is this a complete swap of centre elecs/plastics?

Might have to look into this. .

I have an audio set up from previous vehicles that i'm dying to get installed but i wasn't keen on running it from the standard HU with no mp3/equaliser etc.

Think it's worth the money or should i just get my stuff installed through a LOC?

Yes the screen is bigger but only the electronics gets swapped, literally slides out and slides in. The Omega trim is actually very well suited for this mod plus other mods as the top half with the air vents are separate from the trim around the headunit, just like in the Calais.

Well I've had mine for 2 years or more now and I'm very happy with it but since then there has been some development with an aftermarket unit that separates the HVAC from the headunit, allowing you to install any headunit you'd like. Just do a search for it, someone has already posted a link on the forum for it. It's not 100% ready yet but it's very close.
