Hi all,
I would like to get your opinion on what the best options are with regards to an incar kit for the XDA Exec. My car already had a kit for a Motorola which looks to be factory fitted as it has a telephone button on the steeering wheel.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Hi,
Where to buy this original car kit ? Moreover if there is an original car kit, I guess there are several other car kits with probably differents costs or/and features? Where should I go to buy these kind of kits (first of all look at some description)?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,

Anyone have an answer??
Ok so short story is that we've written off our old 1994 Honda Civic which I had a Brodit active car kit and mount for. So im looking at buying a new (used) car and one that has caught my eye is a 2001 Ford Puma.
Ok so this might sound sad but one of the things i've been checking is if I can get another proclip mount for that model of car (it says something when the choice of car is dictated by my kaiser) but unfortunately according to the proclip website they don't make one for that model of car.
So im just wondering what my options are?
I dislike suction goosenecks as they are in my field of vision and as I want to charge the Kaiser as I go (because of using the GPS) I don't want a cable trailing up to the windscreen.
Anyone got any ideas (apart from some blue tack on the dashboard
What website did you look on? I looked on DSL Developments (where I get my Brodit kit from ) and they've got one for a 2001 Puma (R.H. Drive) - check out http://www.dsldevelopments.com/sitegfx/Brodit_Images/652293-4.jpg
HTH,
Mark.
Proclipusa I looked on, i'll check that link you gave now.
Edit: excellent, plus exactly where I would want it to go (was looking for one for a hyundai coupe as well as that was another choice of car but it was way down near the gear stick)
hi there,
i am searching for a car kit, but did not find any at htc's and do not really want to get one of those big generic ones... anyone got an idea?
Hi
Brodit are probably the best for car kits, I have one and works well (once you can find somewhere to place in car). Not cheap, but then cheap is generic. You buy the components to make a unit i.e. holder, passive or active mount etc.

Many resellers and also find some on ebay.

I purchased a new Joying head unit 30 days ago and the mic really sucks bad even after mod's, this is a major deal breaker for me. I am about to order another unit (Ownice 8" model OL-7606) but thought I would ask you great folks first. Here is my set up and must have's out of the box: what unit would be best for me is the question.....
2010 VW Jetta
5 Channel Amp
Steering wheel controls (12 Button)
Back up camera
Must have's
Bluetooth Networking with phone (for the following)
Good clear Ext. Mic ( I live in my car on the phone with customers daily)
Phone
Calendar
Mail
Contacts
TomTom or Garmin (USA)
Then the rest we can work through
stranded android stuff
Thank You Everyone

WOW No one wants to through their input into this?
I'm in a similar position trying to find a cheap android hu with decent bluetooth. I was looking at an eonon, but found these avinusa units which supposedly have parrot bluetooth - https://avinusa.com/7-universal-dou...android-multimedia-navigation-system-159.html
I own a parrot asteroid smart and it has been a great unit but the software and hardware is dated now. The bluetooth handsfree and voice command are awesome though so I'm very interested in how these avinusa units are. If you do get one I'd love to hear your feedback on it or any other unit you get.

I previously had a carjoying and had the same bs. horrible bt call quality even after mods.
I have a AN-21U 2nd gen unit now, built specifically for my car and BT quality is excellent.

It does have some quirks about the way the unit handles BT (treats BT as separate device from unit instead of part of the unit), but it's still really good and a huge improvement over carjoying.
I recently got the Xtrons TE706PL in my car, however I didn't build in the GPS unit yet.
This is because I already have a Pioneer GPS Antenna installed (JVC Headunit), however this is using the Pioneer AVIC connector. Does anyone know if it's possible to convert the Pioneer AVIC to the Fakra connector? This safes me a lot of trouble
Impossible?

That's was one of adapters i found in 2 seconds google search, with little time for sure you can find a solution that suit you; they cost little money so you can buy and test by yourself.
Have a nice day!

Thanks for your help!
But ofcourse I've been Googling, I'm not an idiot However, this is the wrong way around, I need AVIC to FAKRA, which I'm unable to find.

If you not find something usefull you can always buy a small piece of 50 ohms coaxial cable, 1 fakra and 1 avic connector and crimp together, maybe the cheap solution
