PS this image is incorrect, my unit never had any connection in this port, as indicated in my above post... I can't guarantee it isn't an input for a different model though...

Hello all. It's been far too long but I finally got my oscilloscope out and found the damn video feed. Sadly it didn't include the lines with steering input like the OEM Sanyo unit displayed, I expected the Park Assist module to compute this but seems it doesn't do a lot more than pass the...

Update, beam patterns at night... Dipped: Clean cut off, left lens is dirty. Light is well focussed and lights the road from in front all the way up to the cutoff with excellent edge lighting and all road signs glow well from the extra haze output but haven't had any issues with dazzling...

Now the bulb is in, the only other job is the wiring. Unfortunately the connector on the Mazda is not a direct H7 fitment, so we need to disconnect the wiring spade connectors from the plastic holder. There are 2 tabs for each connector that hold onto the curled up ears of the connector (hope...

Then it's assembly time. Remove the adapter from the bulb and insert it below the bracket. Screw down the bracket with the original headlight screws. DON'T cross the screw threads in the aluminium headlight housing! Then slip the rubber cover onto the headlight and present it down...

Now the piece de resistance! We need a bracket to hold the bulbs in. I fabricated a simple bracket from 3mm aluminium, 2mm would be easier or thinner stainless steel. Below are some pictures of the dimensions and final product. Not the prettiest due to tool handling marks etc but it's totally...

Well this is taking a while, sorry folks... Firstly, remove the bumper and then headlights. We then need to remove the bulbs and unscrew the bulb holding clip and bracket. Quite simple: Then this is how the LED bulbs will fit. The H7 adapter is removable from the bulb, which is really...

Hello forum As mentioned in the other thread, I recently fitted LED bulbs to my 2008 UK Sport Nav 5. This is a simple step by step of what I did and how it worked out. It is for your information only and your responsibility if and how you use this information yourselves. I accept no...

FYI, I fitted NightEye LED bulbs to my '08 this weekend. Low and high beam. Fantastic performance! I'll write a thread separately for the process as I'm an engineer and got fancy with the installation, nothing complicated, just clever fabrication... But here's a (poor) pic of the low beam...

Hey asian_xl Do you have details or a link to the Samsung kit please? I've not seen 360 LEDs before. Also, a photo of low beam on a wall showing the light cut off pattern?

Oh, Sanyo. I didn't know they even made car equipment.

Thanks. Yes here's a pic, doesn't say much...

Well, somehow it's working. I decided I'd get an aftermarket unit but then my unit isn't compatible with the aftermarket kits so I removed it to see what was required. When I plugged it all back in it went through a restart sequence of some sort, connecting to all the extra modules so I thought...

Thanks for the help. Here is a pic of the back of the head unit. Lots of extra cables from this thing... I'm not sure which is the camera feed though. Or how the reverse action works. I'll look into the CX adapter.

Original specifications say it has a reverse camera and it's part of the owner's manual and software (various settings and operating options). So I'm sure it's factory not dealership. But I'll loose that with an aftermarket head unit and in the confines of Britain seeing behind you with a...

Well I'm based in UK and I suspect we have quite different spec models. Plus mine is 2008 with a dvd drive satnav unit. I'm hoping someone knows where I can get s wiring diagram to interpret the function of the camera rather than cutting into it. Has anybody else tried this please?

Thanks asian_xl I know how to wire a camera in, I was hoping someone would have experience with a factory navigation system camera wiring. The picture quality is fine, I have no desire to replace the camera. Does anybody have or know where to get wiring diagrams from please?

Hello forum I've searched for days to find something about how to reuse the factory reverse camera with an aftermarket head unit but not found anything. Can it be done? Or rather, how is it done? Thank you

Mods I've just seen I've posted this in the wrong forum, please move to Infotainment. Thanks
