@tucpal do you think i should change the tyres to 45? instead of 40 after looking at that?

its been awhile since I have posted some in here and updated this, with the great help from Rusty we have fitted Navi600 to my car and also TPMS

So from the cd400 to the Navi600 have to say it was well worth it and am pleased with it. I have also done the Navi600 to Navi900 Firmware flash so I get the speed camera warnings.

dont have a full pic of the cd400 but we know how rubbish it looks





Here is the end result














With the Navi600 in we was able to add the Navigation menu on the IPC




Fitting the TPMS module so removing the bumper taking out the old loom and fitting the new loom part number 13373300












Also fitted the Corsa VXR side repeaters thought they looked good

Looks spot on. Similar to my pipe dream, having the nav fitted. If you don't mind me asking what was the total cost of fitting the nav including buying the hardware?

I paid £250 for the Navi had to replace a part which cost an extra £50 and the brought the Nav CD which was £70

RE: Lewis6317 Progress Thread 2 - bhalay207 - 11:th-Apr-2016

Not as bad as I expected. Did you get the loom aswell? Is the 600 the newer one that's being fitted now?

That's a 650 so would have to be fitted to right model year or GM won't supply a VCI code iirc 2014 on

vauxhall really dont want people messing with their cars, mean barstewards

RE: Lewis6317 Progress Thread 2 - stigeye - 11:th-Apr-2016

Very nice mods, like the side repeaters and especially the navi upgrade, sets the inside of the car up perfectly.

@Rusty2009 Does that mean that you just need someone with a 2014 astra to request the code for you?

Lewis6317 Progress Thread 2 - Rusty2009 - 11:th-Apr-2016

As long as it would of been to year from factory a VCI code can be obtained. The VCI code will program the unit to the VIN of the BCM so you couldn't fit it to a car program it and move it to 2011 as it would then again be in theft protect mode
