As we know, Nissan Sylphy navigator are Tan Chong Motor in house product made by TCAC (TC Auto Tooling Sdn Bhd (TCAT), a wholly owned subsidiary of Tan Chong Motor Holding Bhd. Featuring a 7-inch (800 x 480) LCD touchscreen sourced from Samsung, the Multimedia Navigator combines a GPS navigation system, reversing camera, and music/video playback. For inputting of maps and multimedia material, the unit is connectible by SD card, USB, and an AUX-IN connector which supports DVD/MP3 players, camcorders, and even Playstations.

Although the Multimedia Navigator offers music & video playback, it does not feature direct integration with the Sylphy's audio head unit. This is deliberate, as TCAT does not wish to tamper with the Sylphy's existing hardware, which simultaneously explains why this system is currently not offered for the Latio and Grand Livina. Installation of the system into these models require the removal of their existing HUs.

As a result of this constraint, audio playback from the unit has to be presented to occupants via an in-built FM transmitter sending signals to the car's radio. Although such a setup reeks of 'aftermarket-ness', the overall installation of the unit was neat, as the LCD screen gave the Sylphy's dash a significant lift in class.

So, conclusion.. Navigator & Head Unit are difference systems.. If I not mistaken HU also from Clarion & only Changer using Panasonic... That why TC recommend Clarion CX501a coz no need to cut any wire (same socket as factory).. just plug & play..

If we change the speaker to CX 501a can we connect both system( cx501a and navigotar ) to the same speakers.?

I just got the confirmation email from TCAT that the Navi unit does has a Aux-in&out.

I am not sure why I would ever use the IN but good to know.

Anyway, I just send my P80RS for service(the volume know loose) and ordered my IP-BUS-RCA interconnect. I can only do up my ICE once my HU is back.

Thanks.

Correct if i am wrong.

By doing the above you may connect you Navi audio into the HU for better sound.

Sorry i dont much knowledge in ICE.
