What did you do about the Clock and Aircondition readouts that are on the LCD where the clock is. does the AC display on the Navi Screen

 

The clock and ac readouts show up where the clock is on the NON-navi. The navi model has a different LCD up there with more information including track/station info for the radio.

 

like TSX536 said. you need to get the navi model sub-display for the clock and air condition. The AC does display on the navi screen.

 

I am still debating to do this conversion or not since I am still happy with my TomTom6. I can't find the real reason unless the LCD can serve on other purposes. Nice work, AchcA. I am just wondering another question which is totally unrelated to your TSX. Are you from TW?

 

Thanks man
Yes, I'm from TW.

 

wow great job on the install......really doesn't look too easy. good thing i got my car with the navi, otherwise i don't think i would have the patience to do all that.

 

hey AchcA, can i get ur email address? i can't PM you for some reason.

very interested on how ... been thinking of doing this for a while now.

 

great job
but you should, if you did not, have bundled the wires in wire looms and taped up
to protect the wires from damages from frictions and such.
Most likely won't happen to you during your ownership but the next owners.....

 

i have a 2004, could you give me the part number for the navi system, PLEASE -- ASAP!??! thank you!!! and ur email address?!?

 

here's another navi conversion. https://acurazine.com/forums/audio-video-electronics-navigation-22/non-navi-navi-can-done-355663/
I believe this guy can help you as well.
Check your pm for my email

 

achca, what year is your car?

i'm REALLY thinking about doing this ... but then again, if i have a rental, i'd want a navi with me ... so that's what's holding me back i guess.

do u knwo the part number for the navi system/console??

 

was up i was wondering since you mention you have another set to sell would you let me know how much please because am about to put the pioneer avic-z1 but they are going to make me a "custom kit" by taking the radio off the dash. They said they know what they are doing but you know is not compare to the clean factory looks and am afraid they will damaged my car you know. thanks hope to hear from you soon!

 

Lookin' Good

 

achca can i get your email please i already got the head unit and dvd rom buy i still need the connectors and lot more. I would like to verified something so if we can talk on msn would be perfect. thanks

 

check you pm for email.

btw.... connector is super important for this project. it's also very difficuit to find them.

 

I'm still looking for a 2006 Navi unit for my 05 TSX does anybody know where I can get one? The only units that I can find are 05 Navi units.

 

try car-part.com
good luck

 

Dealership or the junk yard

 

i got an 06 navi with everything. but now im confused on the wiring.. i have the FULL HARNESS and cant figure out what goes where.. got any ideas from these pix?

not sure if the second set going to the mid is supposed to be for the center console? or continue running down the side of the car
the bunch of wires to the right i believe go to the fuse box?

 

lol wow.. just looking at the bare console is intimidating.. i'd never be able to do it =[

 

You are very lucky to found the completely harness.
Go and buy the manual from http://www.helminc.com
you will figure all of them out after you study the manual.

 

sigh i have the manual.. but i gues i DO need to study lol. i dont plan to install til next friday.. im thinking.. as i go. i just unplug my harness. and pop this baby in.. [right?]
so almost like plug n play! [heh]

 

If you don;t mind remove most of your interior parts then plug and play will be fine in this case.

If i were you, I will cut and separate apart navi harnesses and others and then just install the navi harness without remove most of my interior parts.

 

i thought about going that route.. but then again having the full harness may be benefecial??
siggggh im not sure where to start. i dont plan to compelte the install til next friday. but am hoping to finish it in one day.

 

Are you doing this all by youself? It could be done by one day if you go for the second method. either first or second method, believe me it's all worth it after you see the navi working on your car.

 

i'm planning to go route 1... because it'd be nice to salvage one harness in the end right? lol. plus all the clips are still in tact. so i can just lock them in... i actually just remembered monday is a hOLIDAY! which MEANS!!! YAYYYAYAYAYAYAYAYYA lol. hey achca can you pm me ur number? or hit me up on aim.. incase i stumble upon something i cant get passed. during install. i hate to keep checkin the threads

 

soooo i'm doin this now.. been workin on it for past like 5 hours.....
i'm having touble get the dash off.. to get the full harness. i think i will attempt to use just the new wires to the navi!!!

 

Great..........let us know how's your conversion going?

 

after tearing the whole car apart. i wasted a crap load of time trying to take the dash off. lol. i just put everything back together and put the navi in along with the components.. turns out teh guy forgot to send me the harness from the navi unit [rear] so i have to wait for that to come in.. but once its here i'll be COMPLETE! =). radio works fine

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i have an 04 tsx non nav, i recently bough an 05 navi head unit with all pig tails exept for the box that goes in the trunk which im planing to do that after. i need help on installing head unit if any1 has pics on how to do conversion that will hep

 

can u show use how to make our own wire harness, using the pig tail, as in which wire goes where, alot to ask but it would really help us guys out who doesn't know how to do the full wiring job

pm me pls

 

Achca, if you still have your other nav system I would be interested in getting if from you. I have been looking for one for a long time now and won't spend $2000 on a used system that I still have to rip my car apart for. Let me know.

 

Man this looks awesome. I need to read a bit more (so with the harnesses it's all plug n play?)
