So you use the original screen in head unit and add Rm400 for just the reverse camera ?

This will void the warranty ?

Sorry, asking so many question. smile.gif

Not mine but it's around RM3xx @ EA Autoworks Bkt Jalil...

For peace of mind I think they provide good quality works though I am not yet a customer there... it's from most review and experience.

Don't know whether it's normal to others though I have encountered this several times before. You can literally feel something that is moving in the seat when your back is leaning on the seat, and when you rub your back on the seat there will be this "ngek ngek" or "erk erk" sound that you call it. First complaint and the guys at the service centre managed to get rid of this sound by adjusting something, but the sound came back the next day. After 2nd complaint they changed the seat to a brand new one. However, after about 2-3 months with the new seat, it is back to square one. The sound came back again, though it is not as serious as the "defective" older seat. The feeling of something moving in the seat is not as annoying, and the "ngek ngek" sound is not as loud. Still the sound is there.

I have come to accept the low quality of the fabric seat in this Preve Turbo, other than the loud engine/CVT sound during accceleration.

You can change the seat under warranty. I did mine for less than two weeks after the SC ordered the parts, installation only took 2 hours.

I think if you go to COSE or the one at glenmarie maybe they can change them right away smile.gif

No wiring cutting, should not void any warranty.

But i believe they still can argue on the HU warranty when the problem come. However, i dun care much on the original HU blush.gif

Not only the Myvi's seat is better than the Preve, but the feel of the gear lever quality is better too. Not only the gear lever of the Myvi is better to the touch and feels more premium(the gear lever of the Preve feels cheap and plasticky in comparison), but the gear lever in the Myvi shifts smoother through the gears. The gear lever of the preve feels stiff and hard and doesn't shift around the gears as easily as the Myvi.

The Preve Turbo has decent handling and powerful acceleration, but the overall quality is lacking due to some of the poor quality fittings and loud engine/CVT sound. But for the price of RM69k that is what to be expected. For reasonably good and comfortable cars I guess we have get ready to pay RM110k and above for similar C-segment alternatives.

Good that the leather seats in the Preve LE doesn't exhibit the same problem as some(or most) fabric seats in the Preve Turbo. I have got used to the feeling of something that is moving inside the seat, the feel of some air pockets in the airbag or something, and the sound that pops up when my back rubs against the seat. The feeling is not really nice since you get the impression of a bad quality seat, though I have got used to it.
