Ok... 3 months later i finally was able to register the vehicle ( local taxes have been going up and down because of the govenrment... incredible how some people need to raise quick cash.)
Since i can now actually use the car i will try to do the navigation retrofit.
So far i have the 16:9 screen and the mkIV computer. No dsp on the car. No harness yet. No radio yet. My question is ... Can i do the retrofit without actually pluging in the radio in the trunk ?
I would like to see it work and i am not concerned about listening to the radio just yet.
so would retrofitting work with only screen, computer, wiring and recoding ?
Thanks!
