Ok guys i know I'm probably gonna get flamed for this but I've searched and havn't been able to find a straight answer..

I finally got sick of the Pioneer headunit which came in the Stagea which was in Japanese and CD player didn't work. So for Christmas my misses said she would buy me a new headunit so I took the risk and purchased a cheap Eonon E1012 DVD head unit which i got around to installing today and seems to work fine and for a close to $300 if i get 12months out of it I'm not complaining.

Radio is able to pickup stations fine but as soon as i start driving it drops in and out or has interfearance. All wires are wired up ok except for a blue wire which has a tag that says something about antenna on it. Is this wire ok to connect to the amp control wire on the headunit? Does it require a fuse for safety of doing damage to my headunit or should i connect it to something else?

where did you get this from? i have been looking for cheap touch screen h/u for a while... as for the blue antenna wire, i wired it up to the antenna amp, the radio reception was 100x better, altho i have only one of the two working at the moment.

Just went and pulled the headunit back out and i have a AERPRO FM Expander which connects back the the loom with the yellow/black wire. From the AERPRO FM Expander i have a red wire which connects to the antenna wire on the back of my headunit.

The wire which connects to nothing is a blue wire with two connecters off it that has a tag that says something along the lines of:

System control (Male Connector)

Auto Antenna (Female Connector)

Now should i snip the female connecter off and hard wire it to my Amp remote wire on my headunit? Will these fix my reception issues?

Think i might have just fixed it...

I tried connecting the Amp remote wire to the blue wire to see if it would power up the antenna and improve reception but no difference..

Then i noticed i have an adapter that the Japanese 2 prong aerial connects to which converts to the normal single prong that goes in the FM Expander...

At the moment I'm at work and the car is parked in a underground multilevel car park... I turned the headunit on running through the FM Expander still.. no reception... removed the adapter from the FM Expander and plugged it directly into the back of the headunit.. turned it back on and BINGO! Nearly perfect reception.. Its still not 100% but thats most likely due to all the concrete being in the underground parking.. Will see how its goes on the way home..

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
