As a load of us have it you can ask us any questions you may have before and after buying it (if you decide too)
Now you've said about questions...
* Does the wiring loom that goes into the CD 400 come out and plug directly into the Android unit?
* Does it make use of the original CD in situ?
* Is there a guide on here for taking off the trim in my car?
* Does it make use of the existing USB socket in the car?
* How does the wi-fi dongle work?
* Do you live close to Essex, can you fit? haha
Sorry for all the Q's! :( Just want to make sure it is the correct item before forking out some ££!
Forgot also.
My car had DAB radio init already, will this unit utilize it or will I have to purchase the add on?
I shouldn't have said anything! Haha.
Here goes!
Yes the wiring loom goes into a block on the new unit.. You then get other connectors which enable you to plug in your USB port, AUX port etc. To the android unit too as they're all separate to the main loom block.
Nope! They give you a whole new CD unit too as the unit also allows you to play DVDs which the standard CD unit doesn't. Straight swap here though
Yeah... I'll have to dig thay out for you when I'm not on my mobile. It's very easy though and takes less than 5 mins.
WiFi dongle you have two choices... You can plug a mobile data dongle into the factory USB port which will be connected to the android head unit and you get a data signal that way. You can also just get a mifi device and connect the head unit via wifi to that and get data that way... I've done both, they both work I'll have to tell you which mobile data dongle to get if you go via that route though as only some work (they're only like a tenner).
Hahaha fraid not! I'm up north... Would have come and done it for you otherwise.
DAB! Here's where most dab lovers are put off. It does not support factory dab setups. You have to buy one of their dab devices (which I have and don't use as I've nowhere to put it!). Here's the dongle with antenna!
If you wanted it then I'd sell you mine for half what they charge.
There ya go! Hope some of that helps
