  1. HI

    I HAVE A MK 2 GS300SE ON 98S

    I CHANGED MY ORIGINAL HEAD UNIT TO AFTER MARKET CD PLAYER

    ALL I NEEDED WAS A TOYOTA TO ISO HARNES IT DID NEED EXTENDING AS THE ORIGINAL HAD A SEPARATE AMP

    AMP IS LOCATED IN PASSENGER SIDE FOOT WELL (A POST)

    THE ONLY THING I NEEDED TO MODIFY WAS IGN WIRE (HAD TO CHOP AN CONNECT WITH LIVE)

    THE ONLY DOWN FALL IS THE AFTER MARKET CD PLAYER DOESNT TURN OF ON REMOVEL OF KEY NEEDS TO BE TURND OFF MANULLY.

    THATS NO INCOVENIANCE AS I REMOVE THE FACE ANY WAY

    HOPE THIS HELPS

  2. iv bought this one now, so no goin back, £55

    Cool let me know how it works out for you. Hope it works for ya :D

    :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: Doesnt F%$kin fit, SO need to try and sell it,

    Has anyone got there sat nav working in there altezza????

    Please Anyone???

    ive heard the altezza sat nav will only work if u replace it with uk is 200 nav computer

    but you loss the tv opion on head unit that why i never botherd changing it

  3. Cool i have another look at my wiring and try to figure that out. Are your speakers amplified with an external amp, located behind the glove box? Not all models have them. This could explain the difference between wiring schemes.

    no m8 mine dont have amp its 1 without

    but i dont think that should matter the sound wire from tv tuner should be same

    the only differnce in my opinion is my tv tuner has a converter betwee wiring but some one has converted yours coz on the second wirin block which is different mine only has 4 wires before converter

    Ok so how does your dvd player get its power?

    Are the cables from the dvd player RCA output?

    So i should get an RCA lead going from the dvd player, chop off the plugs at one end and wire them into the block that i disconnected the tv tuner from, they way you described above.

    my dvd player gets its power from back of the standard head unit.

    yes you can use rca cable chop the ends on 1 side and wire it accordig to my discription but wiring block needs to be re connected to tv tuner if not it wont work

    but if your going to wire dvd player in glove box like me make sure the rca cable is long enough

    advice: if you follow oem wiring back through the boot you will find the is openin for wiring so no need to make any new holes

  5. once u connect your wiring to these 4 wires this will work as aux inputs but you will only here when you use TV button on your head unit.

    then u need a video input which is were it gets complicated because u aint got enough wires mine on the second wiring block on tv tuner.

    mine has 5 wires yours only has 4 of which 1 is cut

    i have wired video -ve to wire 3 without chopin its conection with tuner (which u dont have)

    i have wired video +ve to wire 5(urs is green) by chopin connection with tuner and conecting it direct to video +ve.

    i will have a play about with mine and try to work out a solution for you(on weekend).

    i have my DVD player mounted in glove box(if u find a bettter place to mount please let me know)

    26608174441.jpg

    it works like MAGIC

  6. wel i actually use mine through the standard head unit it works like tv would press TV button screen folds out on its own and it plays sound from normal speaker this solves EER3 problem if u have it

    just use dvd player 2 play cds mp3 etc

    the main cost of this is dvd player (mine cost £60)

    but i wouldnt know how to work dvd with screen if you remove standard hu

    TAZ

    Are you using th GPS screen to watch the dvds? The factory one that pops up from the dash?

    So if i leave in the standard HU, how do i hook up a dvd player to it?

    yes im using gps screen

    u will need :

    1)a dvd player that supports ntsc format ( i have http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Centurion-In-Car-DVD...1QQcmdZViewItem )

    it plays any thing

    2)3x phono connectors

    3)cable (i just used 2core speaker cable as i was jus tryin)

    does ur tv screen work while moving(mine did ) if not theres a problem

  7. Hi Taz,

    Is it easy to bypass the tuner and use a dvd player? I plan on removing the standard hu with an after market, so i would have a spare slot to stick a dvd player into.

    wel i actually use mine through the standard head unit it works like tv would press TV button screen folds out on its own and it plays sound from normal speaker this solves EER3 problem if u have it

  8. i mean getting "tv" reception, the most iv got before is a few voices on ch1 but screen still fuzzy,

    hi m8 ive got a altezza with the tv mine never worked because uk tv use a different bandwith

    uk uses UHF i think japs use VHF thats why u get sound or a fuzzy picture.

    ive bypassed the tuner and put a dvd player to it.

    if i wanted i could add a uk after market tv tuner(but i dont watch emadale)

    hope i was some help

  9. maybe its restricted but im sure it reaches 125mph but min is not turbo

    as far as i know

    there is also a trip/timer/digi speedo next to drivers 'a' post im sure that has some thing to do with rev control(because car drive different dependin on how its setup)

    its branded ultra may be its a con cam

  10. as the topic is open

    my altezza rs200 shows 180mh on clock but only gets 2 125mph at a push

    any reson why its does that

    am sure its mph koz av compared it with my is200

    at 125 there is no more throtle starts 2 force it self back up
