Removing ERP 2.0 display

Hi All, I recently bought a pre-owned car which has the monstrosity called ERP 2.0 installed, including the display. I know it is possible to opt-out from the display installation when a new unit is installed. But has anyone else been able to remove the display post-installation? Would I need to go to the same workshops that do the installation?

If you have done it, can you please share how much you have paid and which workshop did you use?

Thanks

Ng Yu Zhi trial: Defence accuses investor of caring only about revenue

https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/companies-markets/ng-yu-zhi-trial-defence-accuses-investor-caring-only-about-revenue

These financial advisors who claim to help us manage our money actually care more about their own money. Don't blame them because this is how incentives work in the financial industry. Commission is what matters most to them. They are essentially sales people.

No one cares about our own money more than ourselves. We have to learn to manage our own money ourselves. We can seek assistance from financial advisors but we have to do due diligence ourselves. Why? They care more about their own money than ours.

EV vs ICE car costs

Hi all. As title suggest I'm in the market for a car and was wondering what's the difference in the experience of the ownership and costs for an EV vs an ICE car? For context I have been driving a couple of shared family cars and am now in the market to get my own due to the need for work commute. there will be the occasional leisure drives with friends/family in it as well too.

I have heard constantly on how owning an EV is a good deal due to the cheaper charging as well and the lack or need to do the regular maintenance in the workshop. am however not sure if the difference, in a practical sense, is worth the premium when buying the vehicle so seeking experience from owners, especially the ones that has transitioned from ICE to EV.

then there is the question of lifestyle as well. did the change in the usual workshop maintenance get replaced with another form of chore or was it really an effortless change as many say it is?

In any case please feel free to share your experience and how it has worked out for you?
