I would get the kit from them but I would like to get navigation which will be a lot cheaper id assume if I got the right unit and trim from the wreckers
When it comes to the VE's, if your going to try and fit a different radio, your going to either have to pay the extra to get the work done, or do a lot of work to figure it out your self. So your options really are:
a) doing a lot of research and filtering through the large threads on here informing you of what exactly needs to be changed (including any facia bits) and the programming requirements.. which then means your going to have to work out what needs to be programmed, the hex locations, obtaining the equipment to make the changes and the other bits and pieces inbetween. Or if you dont want to do that, the unit then needs to be shipped to someone with the capabilities of doing this which again is going to cost alot of shipping and the work to be completed
Or b) Pay the extra for a unit that is prepared and ready to go.. plug and play into your car with no hassles.
There isnt a "How To" guide for fitting and reprogramming these units so unless you like to get down and dirty into hacking/reverse engineering radios.. then I know which option Id go for
*Note
And before its said, Im not trying to be a salesmen as im not the owner of customwiringconversions. I just know top work comes from there.
