The xr6 head unit is a proprietry system which cannot be changed! The car WILL NOT START Without the headunit connected and working correctly. To do ANY changes you need to do a blaupunkt headunit/screen for like $2000 bare minimum and thats even before speakers/diff head unit. They relocate the original headuni to somewhere else and put in a new one

Once agian, the original headunit cannot be removed or changed. You must keep it and relocate it.

Blaupunkt with a deal with ford have done a "MOD" so you can run normal tv/dvd to the screen in the BA faclton with premium sound, however the base is like $2k and thats without any components,. thats just to get the mod to allow you to do it

ford have restristyed the head unit like a mad hoe

so the car cant get flogged and so u cant change shit

security feature of the ba falcon. its hooks into the ecu or sometthing random. engine wont function with the headunit missing / tampered with

only option is to get premium sound and move the head unit somewhere else so you can put your own head unit in and cut the speakers wires etc.,, and just leave the old head unit some where else but still giving power / start signal so the engine still works

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
