Hi

I have the opportunity to get a Beautiful 40-185XF Console and will going next weekend to see it. I have seen some pictures of it and it looks gorgeous. The question i would like to ask is if this model was available with the Mystery Control??

Sincerely

Keith Jansen

Hello Keith,
I don't believe that model was available with the Mystery Control. Here is some information on models that used it.
