bro poadster, got any link show he regret? now considering lol, cause this car inside less thing to play ma, and i cannot afford those cheapest kenwood with gps which is 3k around, so only can choose this lo, now u say like this make me think twice. and looking to install reverse camera on my car lo.....

haha 2day something funny happen...

I think my neighbour(uncle) jelly we change new inspired... he also bought an inspira silver colour just today get his car and traded in his old waja... haha

heard from him that he wan change car for so long now only change after we changed our car.

Here it is... scroll down to the last post of the page.... donno why cant link that post...??

In the link poadster sent out, check post 60.

For me, until you can afford the trusted branded ones, stick to the current HU. Our current HU is actually not bad. very basic but it does the job well (well other than the tuner).

Espec when it comes to ICE i never really trust china-stuff, Sometimes their GUI can be quite horrendous...

Installing the reverse camera is a good idea...I'm also thinking of doing that

I am looking for a GOOD quality rear view miror with built in LCD screen, like this...

Then all I need is to add the reverse cam.... but so far no luck finding good quality ones yet...

reverse cam usually not a problem the mirror monitor is and its not going to be cheap....

After that...getting someone skilled enough to do it reliably

i'll like to do sound proofing to block out the road noise......with a tight budget. Any suggestions???? is it easy to diy?

Quite a few owners have installed, and their immediate reaction is the sound quality sucks.... so you need to consider your biggest wish from a HU... sound or fancy looks and gadgets...

For me, the SQ have to be good as I will be spending much time listening rather than GPS or watch movie (while driving...??)...

thx bro poadster suggestion, may b i top up a bit for kenwood dnx5360nav, do you think is it ok? just screen small a bit for me. 7.0inch model 5k...... zzzzzz

Mirror monitor can be cheap.... arnd RM300 can get, but need good quality ones where reflection must be good as this is a rear view mirror, must use tool when driving....

The ones I see are like heavily tinted and dont reflect images well....

The RM 1.2k i have installed in my Savvy is actually pretty good. Can watch movies, DVDs...good for educational DVDs for my son...he learn Mandarin on the way to school. Sound actually pretty good. It plays DIVX and i have down sampled some HD MKV movies to DIVX format which it plays flawlessly. Interface response also pretty good...better than dumb windows mobile 6.5 phones with resistive touch screen of yesteryear!!! Could have bought one under 1K, but dun have the size fit for Savvy, so have to buy this slighlty more expensive version. It supposely can link to a GPS remote receiver..and supposely receive TV station also, but i never figure out how to do that coz the manual is hopeless.
Still, pretty satisfy with it...but a bit expensive, IMO. But branded ones even worst...around 3K...

Hopefully, it doesn't breaks down after 1 year......

Diff ppl have diff perception towards sound quality, I have listen to those china made ones versus our Clarion HU... and I can tell that there are HUGE differences.... so to each his own preferences...

nzh0920: if you need GPS and DVD more, and you can live with sub par SQ, then these china made ones are relatively bang for buck based on the total features built in...

Kenwood is the only branded manufacturer to include GPS nav unit with Garmin as package in the HU, its rather costly too... and be aware there are no BT features either.... others like Clarion digital medial player have BT but no GPS...

If there is one that have all (GPS, Touchscreen, BT calls and audio streaming, USB, and good SQ)... i would have installed it oredi....

If you want all those, you might as well buy an ipad or galaxy tab and use velcro and stick it to your dash

Trust me, if the ipad is mounted nicely on the dash, I would also have done it loooooong time ago...

i wouldnt worry abt that, i would ppl will break in and steal it haha!

uiks v8 d.. pg 13 summore..


bdw guys, how bout last week TT ? any new poison ?

Too much poison aiiihh. Hahaha. Say Unker Poadster, I'm curious how are your rims? I was worried that they mar start to tarnish/rust after they skim off the top layer.

Also, anyone did PPS here instead of Sierraglow? Wanna know if there are waterspots. My car now like leopard already >.<

rims ??? wait n see.. for me from pps better this kot --> http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1781473&hl=rim

I change hu to sony w1. Taken out from prev car. Now no more reception issue but i miss the steering audio function. Need to buy another module if want to enable that..

To my long lost but found again friend, the rims was finalised with a protective layer of top coat to protect the final product.... feel free to cum TT and molest the rims on these cars: mine, Dessimo and XCInspire...

The only precautions you need is not to let the car wash ppl ever use those chemical spray on the rims (those used to remove the brake dust) to preserve the top coat... AND not to bump the rims against any roadcurb lo....

Thanks for the info bro. Still feel like getting that done. The few times that dessimo msg me about TT (Sorry Dessimo!) I always caught in some situation where I can't reply, either driving or at some meeting or function and whatever. Kinda hard to pop by on Friday nowadays. No news on the absorbers ka?
