Japanese digital tv tuner useless in Aus, take it out and attach a aussie compliant tv/media box if u are interested.

Do you have any info regarding "any" aussie ones that would be an effortless replacement? My 370 was equiped with a Panasonic DTV-M11T I'd love to get it replaced ASAP.

Ive also looked at the Asuka unit etc.

It appears that most units require a full rewire seeing as the antenna connections used by panasonic are some kind of proprietry connector. So I doubt there are many effortless units that ive come accross so far...

How much work is rewiring the connections to the back of the factory head unit / screen??

Edited by Bliksem

there is no rewiring needed. U can use the a/v inputs and the +ve/-ve power supply from the old box, just need to install the wire for new IR lead to the front of the car to mount on ur dash as you wanna use ur new remote, plug in new anntennas and position them on the rear windscreen and hide all the wiring. quite simple really...

The panasonic box has a simple 3rca a/v output where rca's will be attached already, you just attach these on to the new box.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
