Fitting Sat Nav
Fitting Sat Nav
I am thinking of fitting a Sat Nav Touch screen to my Xtype 2003. Having read up I can see how easily the installation can be achieved.
In order to complete the job first time around can anyone tell me the exact modules I need to purchase.
I will be wanting to use all the functions including Phone, Volume control from Steering wheel, Bluetooth & VCCM
In addition does the Wiring loom come with all necessary connections and do I need ISO plugs extra ?
Regards Ray

i went from non sat nav to an x with it.
i kinda prefered the non sat style.
the sat nav has proved to be a poor match to google maps!....i dont even try to to use it now as it never has the address i need in its database.
the heat/ac controls are much more intruative on the non sat nav car.
all im sayin is be careful what ya wish for, sat nav looks nice but functionality is likely better on non sat nav cars

Thank you for your honest reply - the only one. Yes it looks good - costs a lot of cash and if not useful
then a waste of time & money. Will bear this in mind Sir. Thanks once again.

I'd suggest looking at member Dennis double din (he also I believe had a single din @ some point) of NAV, bluetooth, media, mirroring of phone, backup camera, video thread. Just search member Dennis (Black) threads. He has several very detailed explanations with components and wiring needed. He even has some YouTube videos of it functioning. Retrofitting with a Jag unit will be well over $1,500 USD. His was well below that.
Here's one example, there are more =

i always wanted the sat nav setup as my first X didnt have it.
i was thrilled at first with the 2nd X as it had the sat nav....alas my previous answer....but i do prefer the way it looks... lol
using stereo and heat.....er...P.I.T.A
using gps...don't bother.
although i do have my home location in memory so if im lost and want to get home the longest possible way then i can easily do it!
