V36 Can You Identify This Object In Boot?

[Bliksem]

Anyone know what this is? The RCA's are just hanging and whatever they were once attached to is long gone...

Japanese digital tv tuner useless in Aus, take it out and attach a aussie compliant tv/media box if u are interested.

[Bliksem]

I see... Thanks for reply... Assuming that is also what the ir receiver would be on the dash aswell...

Is there a model which I can do a simple unplug and swap being a panasonic?

[Chris Rogers]

nope. only usable part is the lead to it and MAYBE the antennas.

[BurtoN86]

Is there any way to tell if the antennas are compatible?

Thinking about get a PAL system for mine, but CBF if have to run new antennas..

Do you have any info regarding "any" aussie ones that would be an effortless replacement? My 370 was equiped with a Panasonic DTV-M11T I'd love to get it replaced ASAP.

This one is Aussie compliant as in the digital tv which is DVB-T standard

Ive also looked at the Asuka unit etc.

It appears that most units require a full rewire seeing as the antenna connections used by panasonic are some kind of proprietry connector. So I doubt there are many effortless units that ive come accross so far...

How much work is rewiring the connections to the back of the factory head unit / screen??

Can't just cut and splice the wiring from the current antennas to the new antenna plug for the new box? #dodgybrothers haha

[Bliksem]

Would be all over this if you can haha

[AsM]

there is no rewiring needed. U can use the a/v inputs and the +ve/-ve power supply from the old box, just need to install the wire for new IR lead to the front of the car to mount on ur dash as you wanna use ur new remote, plug in new anntennas and position them on the rear windscreen and hide all the wiring. quite simple really...

The panasonic box has a simple 3rca a/v output where rca's will be attached already, you just attach these on to the new box.

[Bliksem]

Did you remove the old antennas? Curious to know if yours were mounted on the front windscreen and as to where the cables ran to get to the boot?

[naz370]

Where abouts in the boot is this? I've got the panasonic antennas in my car which I have had for 4 years but I've never found the console for it.

[Bliksem]

Mine is bolted under the parcel shelf... Ive read others are fitted under the centre console??

Could also be under the glove box infront of the passenger seat or in the boot
