Niko Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) Hi everyone. I'm looking at getting a double din head unit with sat nav and other goodies on it. I've had a look and found appradio like this http://www.pioneer.eu/uk/products/25/299/35829/SPH-DA110/page.html Has anyone got one and how is it? I've looked on the forum but in still confused on what to get and what I'll need to get it working. Or any advice on what unit to get would be appreciated. Cheers Edited March 12, 2014 by Niko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsybriggs1 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) Iv got a pioneer head unit a BT one and that can run apps and I can not fault it at all, so a full on app one can't be to bad, you will need 1 adapter harness 1 steering wheel control adapter 1 facer kit to make it fit in the car And about 1 or 2 hours to fit Plus you need to do the buster mod as well look it up on here This link could help you with the parts you will need mate http://www.350z-uk.com/index.php?/topic/15611-What-you-need-to-upgrade-your-350z-Audio-System Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Edited March 13, 2014 by Briggsybriggs1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niko Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 Or if any one Is selling one that's already to plug and play let me know. Either oem one or pioneer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 I've seen this in Halford http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&storeId=10001&productId=927709&categoryId=165655&langId=-1 It says you can use an app for navigation. And they said to me it's plug and play? Anyone have this head unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmorg4 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'm led to believe the App Radio only works with older iPhones (i.e. not with the 5 or 5S with lightning connector). Has anyone heard whether there's a new version that resolves this? The iPhone 5 has been out for going on two years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, there's a firmware update you can do plus you need a cable from pioneer and one from apple too, to make it all play. Start here if you're keen. I couldn't be bothered didn't really see what it added that I'd use. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Press-Room/Car-Audio-Video/Pioneer+Announces+Enhanced+iPhone+5+Connectivity+for+AppRadio+2+and+AppRadio+Mode+Products Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmorg4 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Thanks - looks reasonable at $50, although I bet when it arrives in the UK it's closer to £100 :O Definitely makes the App Radio more of an appealing option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the apple proprietary cable alone will be £40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Or just dig about on the net and don't spend a penny I had a Pioneer unit years back, paid £700 for it then they wanted £150 for map & software updates, went on a navhack forum, learnt how to load my own software on there for nowt Sent from the golf club...

ouro Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I have the OEM Birdview satnav fitted, and when I was in an ICE specialist shop he told me that replacing my Bose head unit would mean I lost the audio on my original seperate satnav. That can't be true shirley? There must be a way around it. Satnav without sound is just a moving map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
un1eash Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 It's true as the Sat nav is standalone and sends its sound to an input on the oem head unit. So you either have to use an input on the new head unit (no music and sat nav at same time) or install a seperate speaker for the Sat nav. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
