  1. hi, i have factory sat nav Rns-e which i hate, so i was thinking of upgrading to the f30bt, i have a few questions.

     

    i want it to be as factory as poss, is there anything that might not look factory?

     

    can i hide the antenna? or use the audi one?

     

    it says it can be used with the vw canbus parking sensors and heated seats, i have these in my audi will it work?

     

    is it a good unit, should i be looking at something else?

     

    can you get a decent tv tuner

     

    on my screen at the min on startup it says RS4 can this be done also?

     

    thanks

    You can usually use the factory antennas, I did on my VW (after removing the proprietary connection).

    When you say parking sensors, do you mean a backup camera?

    The radio isn't going to effect heated seats...

    TV tuners don't work very well in a moving vehicle.

    Yes, you can make the startup screen any .jpg you want.

    how do you upgrade the maps? ie new roads etc?

    SD Card

    oh and will it work with the factory bose amp and speakers?

    Should, with the correct adaptor.

  2. 1. It depends on what's playing. If you have an album selected, you'll get the arrows. Same if shuffle is on.

    2. I know it sounds stupid but 9/10 times it's the phone being on silent or the volume is turned way down (on the phone, not the AVIC)

    3. Not sure about that one, I don't have steering wheel buttons.

  3. Steering wheel controls can almost always be used with the appropriate adaptor. The PAC SWI-PS is the most commonly used, but there are others.

    The USB in the center console probably has a proprietary connection behind it but you could always replace it with a regular USB jack or just knock it out and run the Pioneer cable through the hole if you're just using it for an ipod/iphone like here: http://avic411.com/index.php?/gallery/image/126-repurposed-the-factory-ipod-area/

     

    I haven't taken apart a Honda before but I'm sure those buttons could be saved, it just depends on how much work you want to do.
