The Mk2..

[AdamRoutley]

Well today, I went from this:

To this after a while trying to find the top left clip!!!

This is the connector just for reference

This is the aerial:

This is the new gadget!

For the fascia, it was order numbers:

1P2858063N87 - Which will give a perfect match in an FR

and

3B0867190 - 9 of these are needed to keep the fascia in place.

Direct from Seat that bill (fascia and clips) came to £22.88.

Well chuffed for the minute. Haven't even scratched the surface of the options..YET.

Looks nice, wish i had gone with a bigger screen one now lol

 

[mark-cupra]

Looks great mate, really similar to mine, its a cracking headunit, enjoy

 

[AdamRoutley]

I think I need to ground the Handbrake cable as I powered it after reading another thread. Either way, the screen stays on, just cant look at pictures or view movies on the go.

Nice ride!
Emocion Red is the best color for sure!!
Does your buttons on the steeringwheel work with that Pioneer HU?

Thanks buddy. Comes up lovely once clean! The buttons work all except the fast forward/backward.

How much did the carbon film cost you?
Was it a easy mod to do yourself or best leaving to the pro's!?

It cost me £5 for 1500mmx300mm

It was my first ever time wrapping something. As long as you have a heat gun, its not hard - just time consuming.

A hair dryer may suffice but it will take a lot longer.

 

[benrace91]

Cheap, and a good effective mod! might carry it out!

Pioneer is back up and running. Been having a few problems with the canbus block in the wiring loom. I keep getting sent busted ones

I have audio but no steering wheel controls currently.

 

[Roganjosh]

Very nice! So aftermarket headunits still work ok with the steering wheel controls, im new to leons so where does your blutooth dongle go for you to be able to get your torque app running with it

 

[AdamRoutley]

into the ODB port dude. its to the right of the steering wheel being a panel that just pulls off.

Took a picture this morning of the HIDs

They are 6000k. Crisp white. No blue once warm (this was about 30 seconds after I switched them on)

H7r bulbs which is why the camera wasn't blinded!

 

[jj06]

Adam that looks great. Been looking at getting a parrot hands free kit but after seeing this definately going to stretch to this double din unit! Youve had some time to play with now - you still happy? I see it says sat nav ready.. how do you go about setting that up?

 

[Matthew FR]

Wish I was able to wrap my wing mirrors ect

Cheers man. The unit I have has Parrot built into it. The g/f said is sounds just like I'm on the phone to her and not as if I'm in a bubble like most. The Nav is a seperate unit. It just plugs into the rear of the headunit I have. Its about £120ish for the Nav box but I have Sat-Nav on my one X so it isn't needed.

As for still being happy, yes. I'm still chuffed to bits with it. I've just bought a sub for it all today. I have uprated Pioneer speakers in my front doors, so now that I have this head unit; it filters everything to where it should be. The sound levels are now perfect (although need a little tweaking once the Sub has bedded in).

Wish I was able to wrap my wing mirrors ect

Just give it a go bud. Its cheap enough to do and if it looks poop then pull it off and start again

Cheers and any particular blutooth adapter, suppose it has to have the obd connector? Where you get yours?
