Grace uses pre-FL Vspec HU. FL HU dont have extra connectors needed to add the underside HDMI & USB ports, so no point getting the Pre-FL front panel connectors.

You mean E &S spec CFL? H11 bulbs

lol, city hybrid here really cut alot of thing

Have anybody got DIY experience hardwire dashcam to battery?

Would that void the warranty ?

You want to kill ur battery faster kah? Normally dashcam uses own battery source or from USB when you start to drive.

Here is my 2nd attempt at mirrorlink my android to FL HU.

This time was successful, although not fully utilise whole screen.


Screen resolution quite poor like older LCD screen but still useful. Here is Google Maps on screen


What I used to mirror?


I also used a HDMI right angle connector to shift the tall HDMI port aside. And I used the USB cable in the power socket port instead of HU, to align the wires center, away from driver position. Looks much neater, right?

Need to set HU volume to 50 then can hear sounds normal

Without the bypass cable the video is cut off but good thing is, navigation voice still can be heard from the radio so I can still find directions via "turn left, turn right, etc"....

Anybody in Klang Valley planning to bulk buy 2017 FL bypass cable?

Total cost? 9 ringgit saja...

And....

currently I am plugging into the that 12V output. And the dash cam i bought cam with this hardwire kit. So, im wondering rather than plugging into that 12V port, just hardwire to fusebox like those in youtube.

Other than voltage, u must see current amp. Usually battery current spike is high when start engine so it may kill ur dashcam and burn the wiring! Try test the kit b4 install.
Also if svc centers see a strange wire connect from battery, straightaway void warranty for battery, electricals, ECUs, etc. Unless u 'kamching' with svc center, dont risk to try this.

True also. If lets say I ever hardwire it and then every time i go service that time also need remove the wires = so much more hassles. LOL. Currently I just hide the wires at the sides (did not have to remove the rubber, just slide it in) and plug into the 12 output.

Hi all , just wanna ask a question btw Honda city vs honday city hybrid

In terms of power / performance, is there a diff?

Can you control your phone from the touch-screen ?

Hybrid as the electric motor + engine gives the highest output



Also on the note , Honda City Hybrid (Japan) - Test/POV....

Espec - 120hp @ 1112kg (p/w ratio - 108hp/ton). 145Nm torque.
Hybrid - 137hp @ 1188kg (p/w ratio - 115 hp/ton). 170Nm torque.

Make ur own conclusion.

No must be from phone. Thats why I put the phone at front cupholder propped with my wallet. So I can reach down and adjust.

There is a phonelink function on HU and the manual said MHL HDMI cable should able to connect, but I follow the steps to connect (Bluetooth - connect cable - go to Home screen) but phonelink is greyed out. Maybe it only works for iphone.

Did it show as HondaLink ? I wanted to know more - maybe it can be hacked anyway

HU icon is just Phone Link. It does mention refer to "HondaLink" website for supported apps but no details. Mirrorlink.org recommends using DriveLink for my S3 but it dont work when tested. I wanted to try HondaLink app but seems like not support City, requires registration, and some say need to pay for use

Nevermind , time to hack that thing once I get my Jazz

Also regarding HU , does it allow you to change car settings or view fuel consumption. I know older HU , you can see your millage and few others as well

FL HU is just an oversized AMFM radio that plays USB and have bluetooth function. You can read my previous comments on the limited ability of this PoS.

Time to replace wife's City wipers... since 2014... and noticed a lot of wiper scratches on the windscreen now . Now to replace the wipers, the above is still the best choice now?

Or should I consider wipers like this Bosch type?

imo , take Bosch clear advantage Rm45 will do. don't need to spend rm90-140 on a wiper ...lol
