Fitting Intravee to an ///M with Nav & DSP what a B&st&rd

[pvr]

This is the normal state of the car at the end of any of your projects as you never finish them ...

No charge for using a credit card, or debit card will do.

You just need something slim and stiff to pop down either side at the end near the hinges to release the clips.

Current cards will work without damaging them, just I've always a supply of these old ones just for this type of job.

cheers is the cable connected to the cradle via a push fit type connector or is it hardwired in (as it appears in the photo) sorry for thread hijack i know this wasnt what you posted for.

 

[srhutch]

not a problem imp75, yes I believe it's hard wired at the cradle and the plug is between the rear console and the subs/storage section.

Gotmy info from PVR as he was as much use as a chocolate teapot on this one.

 

[pvr]

Pah, I least I finished them all in a couple of hours - even in a pub car park

It is hard wired at the cradle end which is why I just left that dangling when fitting (and completing ) my install a few years back

 

[srhutch]

Yeah, and I notice you didn't bother to offer your assistance to me

 

[srhutch]

On a serious note, what else can I do with this Intravee other than get the time to update automatically via GPS.

 

[pvr]

Nah, you are big and ugly enough to do it yourself. Besides, I was working on my garage project

Ah yes, Pot, Kettle, Black spring to mind there.

Besides the music part with configurable music screes? You can show all the computer info, amount of fuel used etc etc.

You can use it to program the bus as well, when connected to the X5 it folds the mirrors on locking the car for example.

 

[srhutch]

Guessing you not programmed anything else then, I know you've tried thw mirrors, what about DRL's

 

[pvr]

Not tried anything else yet. One of those jobs where I need to sit behind the computer for an afternoon and try things out...

To be fair, it is a doddle if you don't have a CD changer.

I would echo that, as long as you've taken the interior out before.

And there is no messing around with the air vents and head unit, so no need to employ the peetach method.

This isn't that complicated a job, the actual wiring of the Intravee and Alpine devices to the car is very simple. It's just the placement of the devices that needs a bit of thought and patience. The guides for removing/replacing all the necessary trim are on here in previous threads.

If you like your music it's essential, I don't remember mine being that hard to fit 3 years ago when I did it either, and I have the CD changer and NAV etc. I have a coupe mind.

The Intravee gives you your ipod on your NAV screen, cracking piece of kit.
