Thanks. Kinda sad that we actually have to buy something just to use navi apps on the HU.

Don't use pillar at driver side, use the other side, more space to lay the cable that side. There is no airbag on the pillar, curtain airbag under the roof lining only.

Then just use Waze/Maps on phone like me. I never get sad doing that. I even bought bypass to install to HU so my kids will be happy watching their fav movie while in the car.

I prefer to use my phone for Google Map instead of buying bypass cable.. Really not worth it.. need to connect la, got wire here and there la.. Plus during daytime, our HU can't see it clearly..

When you start using it, you will quickly find that FL HU is pure crap. An FM radio with USB function tacked onto a low res LCD screen for reverse camera purpose only, packaged into a 2-DIN casing.

The audio fidelity is crap, the video play is limited hence crap, the extended functionality (CD, Navi, smart connect) is near non existent also crap, the bluetooth function is totally crap (it has to cycle thru my contacts every time I connect b4 I can speeddial, WTF!), the only saving grace is the HDMI port which enable mirroring.

If ur the fussy kind, you will want to change it cuz it performs like a crappy Rm100 Made-in-China player. And even that crappy China player would have more functions than this pure crap HU.

<sorry, double post>

Sorry, i dont have my car with me right now. Now working oversea. I just push the wire behind the plastic cover of the A-pillar. I dont think it will affect the side curtain airbag because i only push the wire until it is not visible into the plastic cover. The depth is probably around the diameter of the wire which is less than 5mm.

haha.. 200% agreed with you.. bloody cheaper HU with screen.. Suppose they just maintain the GM6 PreFL HU instead of upgraded it.. The only reason why i can still live with it is their reverse camera only.. Maybe one day i will upgrade it..

No worth it spend money buying bypass cable and hdmi cable for the sake of google map or watch video.. if its can act like Android Auto, then ok la.. Low resolution, slow response.. Better use our phone..

Wondering how long u guys can drive in Highway for the first bar of petrol(full tank).

What's the player that u guys recommend? Preferably can play flac and can run waze..

Easiest way is to change to Android HU with GPS receiver. You can install Google Maps, Waze, Papago, ... and run directly from the HU.

For Google Maps, Waze, etc. will need to share your handphone data as WiFi hotspot.

Cheap one a few hundred can get.

A question :

How can i reset my average fuel meter ?

you can reset most mode by just push the button a bit longer except the ODO.

resetting Trip A, rest AVG for A and same for Trip B.

anyone know how to install android auto ?

You need to replace the HU with a HU that support Android Auto.

That makes sense. I guess the HU is not anti-reflection also. The only problem I have with using the navi app on phone is that the phone holders I buy keep getting loose or breaks after a few months.

Suddenly kinda regret of getting E spec as the HU is kinda sucky... More than 6k diff btw E and S

Maybe the HU position is not good.. or, maybe correct you said that there is no anti-reflection.. Regarding phone holder, i bought at Mr. Diy for 5.6 inch phone.. So far so good.. the rubber on the suction is sticky one instead of hard rubber.. around RM 13.. Its very good..


Really meh u regret..??

For me, E spec is really good because you got back aircond, paddle shift, auto cruise, 2 extra airbag and lousy HU with 3 view reverse camera..

its not add RM 6k for upgrading from normal radio to lousy HU only.. got lot of extra there.. and those extra really good you know..

you can just change android HU around RM 500-700..

Everything else can be added for less than 6k, but that 2 extra airbags is worth much more than that 6k. You can't get those from aftermarket or Brothers. So for me, that alone it is worth going for Espec.

Back aircon - No big impact if not for family drive
Paddle Shift - Only play during first week I got the car, lol
Cruise Control - Seldom use unless on highway,...

But i felt quite thankful when noticed that the inner door opener is chrome instead of plastic like S spec, lol

by the way, any idea where are the 4 airbags in E spec located?
2 biji at dashboard, how about another 2?
