Aftermarket touch screen head unit?
#26
I already searched...
Eventually im looking at replacing my radio and get a touch screen unit.
Now i know im going to have to get a new cover.
What is a good radio that isnt a slide out.
I think im trying to look into a full screen touch radio.
One needs to have dvd player, AUX port, Mp3 format.
i want it to be nice.
anyone have a nice full screen touch radio?
Give me some opinions on good radios.
Price is deff a problem too.

Press and hold the A/C Mode button to scroll through the various kit options (AMB
TEMP ON or OFF, AMB TEMP C or F, SET TIME 12/24H, and SET TEXT).
1
When you see the option you want just let the button go and the action on the
screen will be performed. (ie: To turn the ambient temperature on you would scroll
through until the display says “AMB TEMP ON” and let the button go.)
2
To set the time hold down the A/C Mode button until the display says “SET TIME
12/24H” then let the button go.
3
To switch between 12H and 24H press the front defrost button to the left of the
A/C Mode button.
4
To change the Hour press the rear defrost button to the right of the A/C Mode
button.
5
6 To change the minute press the A/C button at the top of the A/C Mode button.
At any time if you do not press any buttons for 5 seconds the display will save and
return to the default screen and the climate control buttons will return to their
normal configuration.
7
If you hold the A/C Mode button down long enough the display will say “SET
TEXT”. This will allow you customize the default text on the display.
8
Once the display says “SET TEXT” let go and the first letter of the display will begin
blinking.
9
Press the front defrost button to move the cursor left and the rear defrost button
to move the cursor to the right.
10

through the various alpha, numeric, and symbol characters.

steering wheel controls
I want to replace my head unit with a double din touch screen. My question is would the steering wheel volume control, mute and next/previous buttons work on the new touch screen head unit?

Somebody please answer or redirect me towards the answer
hello, i have been looking everywhere and can't find the answer, or come even close to a solution.
Help please.
I went to my local shop that does all kind of stuff with electronics.
i asked him if he could install me an aftermarket touchscreen radio.
he said he could do it, and has done to the rx8 before.
i also asked if i will be able to keep my factory navigation system properly working.
he said no that i would lose it totally. is this true, or is there a way of keeping the factory navy with aftermarket touchscreen radio?

Looks like the newest edition of the Metra kit works with auto climate controls.

You will need the Metra kit and, optionally, a SWC adapter. The Axxess controller in the Metra kit needs to have firmware 2.0 or greater to be compatible with the auto climate controls. New kits have been shipping with the new firmware since August 2012).
