g33k Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Hey Fremeer, thats not really a CarPuter im afraid mate... Its just a double din deck with many options. Is your current TV a double din, or pop up OEM navi? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261186-ebay-carputer/#findComment-4478611 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjay Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Chris are all those no brand double din systems on ebay garbage? Is that the reason you say dont bother? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261186-ebay-carputer/#findComment-4478870 Share on other sites More sharing options...
superspit Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 this was the first item I had installed into my 35.....and it is simply fantastic for the price. Infact, I got 2 of them, one for my brother's R34....some 3 months ago now. The telephone, radio, DVD and GPS functions are great....so too the seperate SD card reader/player. The TV is an absolute joke!...not worried about that too much. So far..both unit's are fine....but can get glitchy if the GPS unit is not completely turned off prior to ignition off. ie. (keys out)...I've found. A simple soft re-set gets them going properly again. Their 'build quality' is akin to something you'd win from a 'shootem-up' gallery at the circus.......So only time will really tell. so far so good!....best 440 buh I ever spent on car entertainment....(yep, u can get them even cheaper than that). If it breaks after a year, I'll get another one. Just my 3 cents.

g33k Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Interesting split view =) I'd agree with Chris Rogers, only in that he clearly knows his electronics. In saying that, im IT minded so i tend to go for more robust systems and technical knowledge. In saying THAT, i don't disregard superspit's input! =/ What a dilemma you have!

Chris Rogers Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Chris are all those no brand double din systems on ebay garbage? Is that the reason you say dont bother? pretty much. the transports die in them, lasers die suddenly. drop down faces get stuck. software hangs and thats the $300 ones. I get emails from shenzen (china) offering me these things for $150USD all day long. those go into the bin. I see them as junk and as such after fitting several and having to pull several back out I quit fitting them. if you are into pulling your car apart in 6 weeks -> 6 months go for it. myself I prefer to put things in once.

n15m0 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Going from Bose to cheap china crap isn't exactly my cup of tea. Its like wearing an Armani suit and buying your shirt from Lowes.
