Don't bother, go an aftermarket system if you have the dual din. The GPS wont work as it only has Japanese maps.

i have the single din with the torque, elec and boost gauges above that then the air con then a litle glove box above that

i have seen sme with exactly the same but just with the tv above that

i am after that as i want my screen to slide out like that its not hard to go after market computer unit and plug into that screen , so im just utilizing the screen with a dif input

so in a way i want the slide screen as is

hold on i thought double din was for the two story head decks and single was for the normal size head deck correct me please

are conversion kits available sum where

its all double din.

the gauges take up 1 din.

any way

so any one know if they are easily changed

and also it would be simple to get a country base gps system and just plug the inputs into the screen , also to have a dvd input into the stock screens etc?

or does the screen also show car data like the gtrs??

for the screen to work you also need the DVD rom(for GPS use only) thats sits in the compartment above the left Glove Box. GPS Doesnt work in Aus - TV doesnt work in Aus. mine stays off and I replace the DVD rom with an eManage :whistling:

you need the "module" in the rear left hatch of the boot.

and all the wiring that comes along with it.

all this for something that tells you your fuel economy in japanses(unless you do a language conversion) when you could just get a one din pop out screen and not have to modify circut boards n whatever else that needs to be done, to illeagily watch TV while your driving.

but if you wish to take this extreme pain in the ass of a route, the screens are all over IM.

I think it wil be easier to by a different stagea than swap it. Like people have said you will need the dvd rom, screen and tv tuner in boot for aux input and wiring.

Im not sure if the sensors are all ready wired for the trip computer but they go in the back of dvd rom.

I know a guy in Adelaide that bought another V35 with a screen and sold his V35 without.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
