Even with Bose? Would it use the factory GPS antenna? Factory mic?

 

I received the Dynavin DVN-PC from JT Distributor and have plugged it into my 06 CTTS w/ Bose to make sure everything works. So far - everything looks to be in good working order. Things are still laid out in the car at this point, but I will report back once I have everything installed neatly. At this point - it's looking very promising. I will try to take pictures along the way during my install in case anyone here is on the fence.

I'm thinking I'll have to go this route. Does it have bluetooth audio and do you have to run any wires?

 

If it's truly "plug and play" and utilizes existing Bose amps, as well as the existing GPS antenna, then I may have to give it a try!

 

I am also very interested and am looking forwards to hearing about functionality and integration of this unit.

 

I have preliminary installed the unit and have it working somewhat. It's not 100% done as I am still awaiting the a fakra to rca connector so I can connect the OEM reverse camera to the unit. Yes - it does have bluetooth audio and I did not have to run any wires. All the necessary wires came with the unit. I have an 06 CTTS w/ the Bose system and it works like a charm so far.

 

It's almost truly plug and play. It has it's own GPS antenna so you have to use it's antenna. It comes w/ the MOST adapter so it works seamlessly with the existing Bose.

 

Do you retain the center instrument display?

 

How's the sound quality?

 

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Are you referring to the info above the tachometer? If so - you lose that bit of information.

 

Yes that is what I meant.

 

Sound is actually quite good. I will try to create a new thread with what I think about the unit as well as the some of the installation instruction. So far - it's definitely worth the money I spent. Being able to keep the OEM reverse camera functionality was a huge deciding factor for me. And it looks like I can do that. I have to get a fraka to rca connect for the backup video input and also need a relay to get the OEM camera to pop out when in reverse mode.

 

And how about the TRIP button info of the PCM? The one that shows time travelled/fuel economy etc?

 

You will lose that info with this unit.

 

Here is some not so great picture quality of my install. It's not 100% complete as I'm still waiting for my fraka connector.
