Guy,

I'm planning to buy an AVIC-F90BT or AVIC-F900BT. My question is if the faceplate for this nav is removable?

Thanks.

With a big enough hammer, any faceplate is "removable"

putting it back, now that's a lot harder....

I removed my F500bt front off. Let's just say it isn't working at the moment.

It is removable and it's not that hard. Only thing you have to worry about is ribbon cables and especially the BT wire, it's super thin and the connectors are very small. Make sure you unclip the ribbon connectors first before you try to remove the cable. Be careful not to get any dust behind the touchscreen, otherwise you'll have to take it apart again.

Guys,

All your comments were quite useful, thanks :lol: :lol:

My concern is that I'm afraid that it may be stolen. Can you give me some advices to mitigate the risk of the theft.

Thanks,

Ruben.

custom blank black cover with a hole for the knob.

but really, it screams "steal me" when you're parked on the street, there's not a ton you can do.
