Greetings from Germany!
I'm just about to buy a late 2010 RCZ THP200 with just about 100.000 KM on the odometer
I've read a few posts on this forum before regarding an aftermarket android radio installment but i have no idea what specific headunit is present in the car right now, as i have no idea about the specific terminology (what exactly is an NG4 for example.. lol?)
I'll attach a picture from the seller down below, it doesn't have JBL speakers as far as i can tell (should have a bright silvery sticker on the door panel for that... right?)
So i've got a few questions about all of that, i really really want a new headunit with android auto capabilities, i've seen posts mentioning a connects2 adapter, is it possible to tell which one i need exactly without knowing the headunit i'd connect that to... most headunits have generic KEY1, KEY2 GND connection for steering wheel controls.
Also what about the parking sensors..?
I would also be pulling a few new wires to be able to install a subwoofer later on (probably with an extra amp, perhaps even a pair of two underseat subs) but i'm fairly confident i can figure that out on my own.
This kind of dash screen should keep its functions from what i've read, is that correct? I'd be beally sad to lose something and not be able to fix it.
i'd also love some recommendations for headunits, what i've heard the ATOTO A6 PF are really hyped right now, and they're also selling a 9 inch version which should (?) fit with the right fascia (?) Ideally i'm looking for a really good wireless android auto connection, the no-name china one i have in my current VW Polo does have Bluetooth Android Auto, but its extremely stuttery and cuts off randomly, just its an awful experience, so i'm using wired android auto which does work extremely nice, but i dont want to keep using wired android auto in the RCZ.
Must have for the headunit: Subwoofer RCA output(s) and a stable high quality android auto/apple carplay experience with reversing camera inputs
I'll also be doing a lot on the car in the coming times, custom ambient lighting, an entire proper sound system, purple wrap, maxton design kit, sport exhaust... yea well thats its lol
Cheers!
