Hi everyone, I've been on this forum quite a bit recently so thought I would put some photos and info on of my car.

I have the 5 door SRi 2.0 CDTI 165 Automatic with front and rear parking sensors.

Was surprised to find the rear windows are manual! Thought they were a thing left in the 2000s.

All my 'mods' so far are electronic.

Complete-
H7 Nightbreaker Unlimited bulbs for Low Beam
LED number plate lights
LED DRLs/Sidelights (Epistar Projector with CK Pinout)
LED Interior Lights - all except sun visors
Parrot Asteroid Tablet with Paser Unika steering wheel CAN interface (rooted with Play Store side loaded)
HappyBlue CAN Module
Transcend 220 Dash Cam (with lane change and forward collision alert)
TP Link 4G Router (supplies internet to the Tablet and also WIFI signal) mounted in the roof

To fit-
Transcend 200 Dash Car for rear
LED brake lights
LED tail lights
LED indicators
LED fog and reversing lights
Door ambient LEDs

Functions added (HappyBlue)-
Unlock and Welcome Lights (Indicators, brake lights, sidelights, number plate)
High beam flash includes fog lights
When in reverse press mute twice to activate all rear lights
LED errors deactivated without the need for load resistors
Journey logging
Data display on Tablet
Parking display improved and also on tablet
Speed, RPM and Gear displayed in clock LCD
Hold unlock on key fob to pop open boot - need stronger gas struts but the angle of them when closed would probably make it even harder to open the boot




DRLs


Unlock lights


Dash Readout - have got Gear to display now rather than transmission ratio


Data displayed on Tablet


Parking Sensor Info on tablet - also improved display on the display in the clocks includes distances in ft (although too bright to see in this photo)


I am waiting for the developer of the app to send me the source code which is open source so I can make modifications and improvements.
