yep, bin it. the system is different thant he local AVN6000. see a couple of these a month. I do have a navi disc for one but its not going to help you in your quest for a cheap dvd/nav system. the DVD is locked to region 1 I believe.

Hi guys,

I'm a bit new to all this so I need some advice, after bringing my car with me from the Uk fitted with an Alpine INA-N333R I found that the navi unit needed a new map, so far I haven't been able to find one. Does anyone now of a way forward allowing me to keep this head unit? Only at present I'm using a Navman unit...

Thanks for any advice...

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
