    Replacing the crappy Head unit

    Honestly I have no clue as I am keeping some safe distance to apple lock-in hardware. So I don't own any of these. The HU supports Bluetooth with A2DP though and not everybody seems to be happy with the audio quality on A2DP. I personally use it with local music stored on SD card or internal...

    Transmission

    From what I know the FB16 got a new generation CVT which is different to the old generation 2nd revision "high torque" CVT used in the FA20 versions. This not only includes the belt itself but also the oil pump and forward/reverse gear structure. The CVT in FA20 Levorgs is supposed to be a...

    Replacing the crappy Head unit

    Yes it looks exactly like in the video. The plastic is matte black and quality is quite ok. Just the silver linings on the vents look a bit cheap as they are just painted. But it does not disturb me a lot. The screen sticks a bit out on the top end but it does not disturb me either. I got my...

    My customizations

    Yes it looks good in the dash and integrates very well. So it does not look like any aftermarked part. This is why I like it. The downside of this is that all these units got a 1024x600 screen. So no matter if you have 6" or 9" they show the same content, just slightly bigger. I would have loved...

    My customizations

    Yes, looks like Norway is similar in many aspects. Loved riding my bike through beautiful landscapes in Norway 2 years ago. I need to come back to this terrific country. Yes to tell the truth, the head unit was a bit pain in the back until I got it working the way I want to. Perhaps it would...

    My customizations

    The headunit is not bad but I was a bit disappointed about the "audio/amplifier" part. This is why I also added a small dedicated Class-D amplifier (Pioneer). Moreover I am a bit disappointed about some noise audible at low volumes. I think there are some interferences and simply not enough...

    My customizations

    I gut my Levorg in April and over the past four months I have done a bunch of modifications and enhancements. I did an article about this on wheelcrowd. I am afraid it's too much to post here so I just provide the link for everybody who is interested on my modifications. The article should be...

    Here is mine!

    That's exactly the issue. I think they are not bright enough to be used as street-legal DRL here. And without approval (I guess there is no "RL" and circled E sign stamped on the glass) they cannot be approved here. It's also not allowed to mount accessory lights as the number of lights of each...

    Interior light - where to connect

    Thanks for your reply. Well of course I could simply buy something which cost $100 for something very simple where I can also get RGB LED for half of the price. Moreover it's more fun to do it yourself and something custom. I also thought about door opener switches. Perhaps connected to some...

    Interior light - where to connect

    I would like to mount some 12V LED stripes somewhere in the foot area or under the seats. I already have the LED stripes but don't want to connect it to the lighter socket or any 12V constant power. I want it to go on when the doors are open and to go off when the doors close. Just like the dome...

    Replacing the crappy Head unit

    I got my one upgraded in the past two days now. However I have decided to do some experiment and go for this one here. Actually first they sent me the wrong cable. Actually it was the Subaru 20-Pin connector. But they have been able to send me another 28-Pin Harness. Unfortunately also this one...

    Here is mine!

    Dammit, I would so much love to have these. Unfortunately they don't seem to be street legal and approved. Are they officially announced as DRL? I only found some offers advertising them as "LED accessory liners" but not officially stating DRL (in terms of brightness and ECE88 regulations which...

    Sonic Design Speakers

    I am not really sure about this. Actually the speaker are mounted to the original mounts in the inner metal door frame. Vibrations from the mount will still travel through the metal frame and also couple to the outer door cover. Dampening doors will help reducing those vibrations. Also the...
