Navi/Central Display unit delete
NOTE : MY NAVI UNIT WORKS!! NOTHING IS WRONG, I'M ONLY DOING THE DELETE BECAUSE I'M STRIPPING THE CAR FREE OF AUDIO/AC/PANELS ETC. (Track car build) SO I HAVE NO INTENTIONS OF PUTTING IN ANY SORT OF TABLET ETC.
Hey guys, has anyone removed their Navi/Central Display unit? I'm going to remove mine and was wondering if there is a plate or some kind of cover available to cover the whole it will leave behind. Or if someone has built their own, I'd love to see some ideas on what can be done. -Cheers PS: All my Audio/Navi parts in the car are for sale!! Let me know if you need them, if I still have it I will happily sell it to you for a bargain since my cars turning into a racecar. Thanks!! Last edited by Z4M_LEV; 11-17-2015 at 07:40 PM.. |

Why don't you remove just the display unit and leave the plastic casing in its place? You can even have a shop wire and fiberglass a tablet in there to display digital gauges.

If my head unit or amp ever goes Tango Uniform, I'll be ripping out the whole shebang and doing something like this.

Oh I mean, I wish I almost wish I got a car without navi so I could install one of these! I love the idea and couple it with digital gauge apps, I think it's a great idea. My problem is I feel too bad yanking out a fully functioning nav system for this. If going this route one would also lose the ability to adjust the details on their stereo, see what radio station is playing, etc. Maybe there's a way to run this with a tablet but that's something I have no clue about.

Just a thought - if your existing nav unit went 'tango uniform' couldn't you replace the head unit with a standard (non-nav) oem unit, which would work with your steering wheel controls, and then retrofit a tablet into the nav mount to run gauges (torque app, etc) off the obd2 via BT? Ok, so it won't be an audio unit, but you'll already have that functionality via the replacement OEM head unit. Not sure if the HU would need any coding since it's different to the original one you would have had, but can't see why it wouldn't just work?

I guess I could do it though, as I don't have an external amp. Far as I know it's all done in the HU. Fingers crossed my Nav unit keeps on ticking for the duration of my ownership, and I don't need to attempt this.
