Just to be clear, is that the only harness in the blue section that's used for a stock setup?

no, There's also the USB harness

All done. Not even 2 hours lol.

I think you are missing a screw..:lol:

 

[Marvinmadman]

Nope. I've taken this car apart a few times already :lol:

My only issue now is the front camera... cant seem to get it working :/


Update: I decided that the front camera isnt worth the hassle..

I had a lot of trouble getting the usb that is underneath the unit to stay working. The connection seemed very poor and loose so I had to improvise and melt the harness and then used electric tape to keep it snug. So far so good

There's a little storm brewing... A little breakthrough with the actual manufacturer, not the middleman we've been dealing with.


We could be looking at a 50% lower price than the original units, possibly in the $350 (shipped) range, but I'm still negotiating.

thats a game changer! i might want to get in on one of those group buys.

Now I need to do a little searching. Boot pics, change the °C, and maybe adjust the remote start AC settings as far as blower speed and ambient temp reference points. Track mode, dual climate so the head unit actually can do it? Lol

The plastic is crap you have to bend it a little so its snug. once it latches it will stay.

Damn that As-built thread gave me a headache. I'm no closer to answering my inquiries either.

It latched, I think. I put all the strength that god gave me to push this harness in and it still kept disconnecting. Anyway, its working now... one other thing is that the hazard button is kinda sticky. It doesnt toggle back to its neutral position after I push it. So I have to push up and down on it

You can't enable dual zone if your car didn't already have it. There are flapper/doors in the ducting that the car is lacking.

Thanks

Wish I could get into StangATX's site to grab the updates. :doh:

 

[Marvinmadman]

So I can go straight to the custom ROM? Or do I do the April update first?
