Yes indeed it is a quite an expensive solution as typical 3rd party HU only cost less than 1.8K with DVD player. This Noble system is just a bare bone system which did not come with DVD player or LCD screen.. however the uniqueness of this system I found it interesting is it can work co-exist with original Honda HU thought HDMI input port without replacing entire Honda V-spec HU ....else why buy Honda City V-spec for the 1st place .. .

So in the nutshell, this Noble integrated system is an embedded ICE (In-Car Entertainment system) which offer build in stand alone Papago navigation system , MP3, MP4 etc media play back through it dedicated USB2 port and direct WiFI (Allshare Cast) Smart Phone wireless mirroring capability and it make full use of original Honda HU LCD touch panel display through the HDMI input port for it's system UI.

To switch from Honda HU UI to Noble ICE UI, user just need to select HDMI input and long press Steering wheel input select button for 2 sec to switch over to Noble ICE UI main page. Under this UI screen, user can use the touch panel to playback those media files recognized by the Noble ICE from it's dedicated USB port as well as running it's GPS navigation system in the background/foreground. Only in this mode, user can to listen to music and navigation voice simultaneously. However if you exit Noble UI return to Honda HU UI, eg playing MP3 songs directly from Honda HU USB port, listen to radio station, user will not able to hear navigation voice unless user switch back to HDMI input.

Since this product is very new, to better understand how entire integrated system works with Honda HU, best option is experience yourself by requesting a demo in the dealer shop and decide if this something worthwhile to invest

I did not ask for product warranty yet. However I believe such an expensive product should have it owns warranty by itself else nobody will buy it

Thanx for the Great sharing!

well, for budget user, it would be a wiser choice to just purchase a separate independent Papago / Garmin GPS unit, very much cheaper but a bit under-utilize ur 7" display screen lor.... while for those "dare-to-experiment' user, u wan bigger screen, maybe just DIY n add connector input signal to ur HU (just like ur reverse camera) so ur GPS device will show the display on the HU screen lor.. but dont ask me how, wait till im free to experiment then i'll tell u haha

Thanks for your sharing and explanation..

I still hoping honda will provide GPS and reverse camera upgrade to V spec user..

From day 1 collect the car didn't realize this. After 1/2 an hour going back to dealer asking for replacement. Confirm with sales manager to change during 1k service but sadly nothing is done, even parts dept also deny about this and want me to clarify back with Sales Manager. Problem now sales manager is out of country (holiday trip).

How come Sales Manager also lazy to handly this issue.

So do i have to wait for parts or just go to accessory shop cover with good sticker? This PDI honda never done good job if this type of problem can happen not just for me but for other buyer also.

What is this? Scratches?? I suggest you just wait for him to come back. Not a big issue. Car still can drive. Otherwise, just write in to complain officially.

I think the City lights is ok. Not really neccessary to change. From what i understand, the NB Unlimited is the brightest, according to one seller here. I was looking at it for my Inspira...but not really sure how to change....I found it at Brothers but quiet expensive compared to buy online and install it yourself. Maybe can buy online and ask outside workshop to install?? I wonder how much they charge for installing light bulb...RM10??

area below push start button

the handbrake lever seems to be a bit flimsy. does anyone else feel d same?

I think the spare part shop at Seapark SS2 should have it as well.. would have to identify how to install first though.. previously done easily on my Proton ride

Is it this one?

that's one of the many.. but I had many bad previous experience with them. I usually go to the shop along the same row of Maybank. Can't quite recall their name atm..

Ok, noted. Will go there try again tomolo.
