So guess what happened to me on the weekend? left my 1990 r32 outside my house on sat night came back in the morning to find my passenger side window smashed and my 4 month old Alpine CDA-9857 stolen. the scumbags smashed up the whole centre console. 2nd time ive had a smash and grab on my car!!!

my advice to anyone that lives in richmond Vic- watch out.

usually i take my face plate off, but i must have just got lazy.

Can anyone suggest where i can find replacement parts?

i need a new passenger side window, and all the plastic parts of the centre concole. (not to mention a new radio...)

if anyone finds an Alpine CDA 9857 2006 model. serial no. E60310258 could you please contact me.

any help would be great. thanks guys

Dave.

i know this doesnt help and im sorry to hear about your breakin & theft but do you by any chance have the headunit cover case (black thing). Mine is shagged and need a new one, but can't find them anywhere.

I've got one from my old headunit. It's yours if you like

haha sorry i just found that hilarious. No matter how nice you tried to be about it it just sounded so heartless...

i know the excess wouldn't be worth it but were you insured?? Some of these Alpine headunits can be pretty expensive so yeh...

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
