To me, the speaker sound quality is good enough. Just need to adjust the front balance to F+5.

Agreed. Initially thght it is spoilt. Cos dnt hve the surround effect like the old altis. Can live with it.

 

Found some safety flaws with keyless entry. Stated in manual that if u started yr car engine, leave the car. Someone jumps into the driver seat, he can juz drive it off. Only when he off the engine then he cant restart anymore. Haiz. So missing the previous key and separate remote. I can leave the car engine on, take out the remote, lock the car and walk away. Now cant. I try locking with remote but it juz wont work. Will to read the thick manual for more details.

 

Anyways to on and off the leds? My SE say cant off. Quite nuisance cos when engine start but im not moving, the led will give me away. Then cars looking for parking will ask me if im gng out which in not. Very misleading.

 

Anymore new findings please share.

(For keyless entry)

E.g. if u wish to operate yr radio, wipers, side mirror or window after engine. Do not step on brake padel. Press the start button once, u can open or close mirror etc. Press another time, u can wind down the window. Press last time to off it.

The original speakers sucks big time, my friend bought the twitters from bm and it sounds flat.. Haha! The original Headunit is quite good. I changed my speakers recommended by my installer Sky. Some German brand speaker that cost me around $400+. It comes with a set of two front speakers, tweeters and installation. Superb Sound!!!!

 

Actually, after using the tweeter for a few days, the sound open up.  To me, just need to adjust the front balance to +2 and bass to +2and it sounds good.  You may want to ask your friend to try.

Vocal

 

Ohhh ok

Anyway for my audio i find the volume at front too soft so added 2 philip tweeter in front.

Got it done by a freelance guy and do some speaker tuning, cost me almost 200 in total 

 

(His settings is front +4 and vocal option)

For mine,  when the car is started with the light switch at "off", the LED do not turn on.

It's not illegal bro.. Hahaha! Those aftermarket pioneer Headunits can play videos while in Motion too..

Quite a problem. When driving. Even bluetooth to phone also disable. Juz dnt let u distract yrself while driving. Then the gps is worst of all. Google map juz beats its hands down. I went to iauto site but no update of the HU.

 

The led is off when u start engine, once u release the brake handle, it lights up and never goes away

Everyone got their poison is all I will say (Like 1 of my friend, scuff plate is his poison) .

I will advise just do what you deem is worth it and don regret in future, even if its wrong just embrace and learn from it

Bro u friend got the altis scuff plate. Original Frm BM very small, dnt knw for wat

Agree with such flaw on keyless entry. My SE told me the eng will  turn off certain period of time when driving, dun know true or  not also.

Toyota has wired the HU to both the handbrake and speedometer signal, and you need to ground these two wires before you can watch while moving.  If not, you can still hear the sound but no video on HDMI, Miracast, Mirror Link.  Bluetooth has no video so you still can connect with your phone to listen to music or do a phone call.

 

The scuff plate is quite nice and good length for the front but much shorter at the back (also because shorter space at the back).

I guess it depends on the tweeter you used.  For BM's pioneer tweeter, I find the sound too "sharp" if I set front to +4 and also feel less bass.

Hi

 

You mean the GPS on Toyota HU is very bad ? In that case, is there any way we can mirror google map to the HU ?

Yes, good to have a digital speedometer.  I never get used to analog type (eg. is it 80 or 90kmph?).  

 

I bought this HUD at about $60 at Qoo10, which is plug and play (into the ODB2 port below the steering wheel).   You can set speed limit alert to beep when you go over it.   It will auto power off once you shutdown the engine so you don't have to worry that it may drain out your car battery.  I project it high so that it does not obstruct my driving and still easy to see.  But need to set the brightness to max (+2) to see clearly under bright sunlight.  

 

Actually, I only need to monitor the speed as the rest of the info is not required all the time and can be quite distracting (since you can see on your car's dashboard).  So in the end, I cut out a black card and pasted it over the rest of the info and just to show the speed.
