Hi to everyone here,I just got my honda city v spec today Honda city v spec/modern steel/selangor I must say that I am pretty disappointed with the touch screen feature because when I try playing hdmi from my phone especially when using apps like waze or google maps,the hdmi gets deactivates when my hand brakes are down or when the car is moving Is there anyway I can disable this feature? Any means can be suggested such as hardwiring or through software changes.has anybody here tried to fix this?
Also I heard that the modulo body kit comes at about rm1300.how do u know if it is the original or a fake?

Wow chill out man why so hostile
And as experience serves me well eventough the service manual or as mentions that it isn't possible.there might be loopholes which allows this feature to be bypassed.maybe using a different cable.? I just wanna use google maps u see
My question about module mods is because I wanted to know how do you practically determine how it is an original product or not
If anyone has any suggestions please say so but if there aren't then that's too bad.im not gonna sell my car off just because of one feature.so just chill out

QUOTE(celciuz @ Jun 20 2014, 08:19 PM) There are shops offering bypass for that  however prepare to void the warranty of your HU la... Well, many claim no void warranty, but if Honda spots the wire being tampered... Thanks for the info dude, I was thinking about the same thing but what I've gathered is that if the wires are not cut , the warranty should not be void.the similar concept applies when u install the back spoiler for the module kit whereby u need to drill holes on the back and connect the wires,however is the wires are not cut,the warranty should not be void The software for the touch screen kinda reminds me a bit of ios itself,looks jailbreakable if us ask me but I just don't know how.i hope that in further updates the iOS in the car feature maybe added.

Thanks for the info maxevil , ur explanation was very detailed though haha,I would also buy that adapter if it exist hehe
But I was wondering if anyone knows of a software crack which can somehow overwrite the restriction,cause I'm sure it's more on a software restriction as well.
Also on a side note,did anyone notice a creaking sound when trying to open the boot?
Thanks

QUOTE(iq_myst @ Jun 21 2014, 01:47 AM) I think it wont work. I believe the wire is not just for sending signal from the brake to the HU. It also send a feedback to the car system to inform if the handbrake is engaged or not. By adding new wire, you will tell the car system that the brake is always engaged. therefore the warning light on the meter panel will not go off and warning sound will be on all the time. Don't know you understand or not my explanation. But it's just my theory.. huhu I agree completely, that's why I think that software mods are most likely the only way to go.it can possibly trick the touch screen system that it is on standby without raising the warning sound Also, a small note to siamanggagap, I noticed that u have a reverse camera installed into ur default touch screen for rm600. Did u have done here in Malaysia or in Thailand? If I were to add a reverse camera, would it void my warranty?

QUOTE(siamanggagap @ Jun 21 2014, 09:43 PM) actually i am the 1 who snap the picture. installed it at welldone accessories shop jln sg besi. just set gps POI "southgate" in 200 metres u will see big 3M signboard on your left. Hello bro and thanks for the reply so it theoretically should not void the warranty la. Also,what do you think of the quality of the epsilon camera brand is?Have you run to any problems so far?such as jerkiness/lag/occasional malfunction? Thanks in advanced!

Hi all sifus Wanted to ask about the modulo body kit I was at an accessory shop the other day and asked about it and the dealer said that he would recommend a PP local body kit instead of a Taiwan PU body kit Are there any real difference between the 2 body kit materials? Price? Quality ? Etc

QUOTE(siamanggagap @ Jul 5 2014, 07:21 PM) currently non original in our market only local made. already confirmed with 1 of the main supplier. if the shop stated taiwan mali, then the shop "kencing" u lah. Hi and thanks for the reply Oic that means that all cheap ones are locally made unless proven otherwise.however,what are the difference between the ori and the fake ones.i really can't tell the difference and to make things worse there's a separate bill for PP variety and PU variety.how to decide la boss haha...

QUOTE(siamanggagap @ Jul 5 2014, 08:16 PM) a few ppls already complaint about the non original bodykit in FB group. i cannot explain in detail bcoz i am using an original bodykit from honda access thailand. guess what, 1 of the member in the group stated he bought an original bodykit from honda SA. but from the picture he posted i am sure it was not an original bodykit. the bracket & other accessories look different from an original unit. i think his SA already "kencing" & make him pay rm3200 for it. I agree with that That's one of the reason I'm hesitant to go with the original...I am just not confident on how to tell the difference between one which is the original or the kencing ones.its better to know that u have the fake one rather than to pay almost 2k more and realize u got the kencing one haha So can someone share the differences between the 2 body kits...original and fake ones and also the PP versions and the PU version Thanks!

QUOTE(siamanggagap @ Jul 5 2014, 10:42 PM) Yup I saw ur car screenshot in the beginning of the thread and it is a real beauty in my opinion. Bear in mind that I am not installing the body kit yet but opening my options for now,maybe waiting for the mugen kit. If u look around Mudah.my and even some threads in lowyat forums,there are actually a few people selling so called original modulo kits ranging from rm1300-rm1800 .i can't even really say if it is truly original or not? How about their packaging or maybe an authenticity card that may come with the body kit?is there a way to purchase it directly from modulo itself?
