 | Subject: Changing the stero to a more "basic"unit  Sat Oct 27, 2012 10:57 pm | |
| Hey all,
Just after some tips, warnings, advise before I start.. I am wanting to put a different head unit in my van. It currently has this touch screen, DVD/TV/GPS/Car maintence/CD/radio thing in it.
The only thing I use on it is the radio & CD. The TV doesn't tune in & who watches DVD's on the dash anyway?
My question is, when I pull it out what am I going to expect wire wise with the GPS & Car maintenance thing. Its hooked up to something that senses the speed I am doing & my breaking etc.
Do i just tape those wirse up out of the way when they are no longer in use? | |

| You should have three separate plug areas, maybe all in one plug?
I normal ISO head unit and 1 speaker connection as one plug, other stuff on a it's own plug but maybe all in one?
Hopefully you can just leave the other plug off and all wires will be isolated within the block. | |

| why would it need to be hooked up to your brakes and speedo ? should be just normal gps
tug out , iso lead , hunt a tray or blanking plate for a toyota off ebay and stick a new head unit in , a double din will make filling the hole easier | |
