Thread: D4 After market Sat nav ideas

I'd be asking these guys:
VMS - Serious 4x4 Navigation - home
They have them to fit LC200, Freelander and many more.

Hi Rich,
They've been promising one for the D3 for ages. I suspect that it's been put in the "too hard" basket.

Best Wishes,
Peter

Looking at a D4. Am thinking of the possibility of moving the small screen and putting a touch screen in and an in car pc under the passenger seat.

Talking about the too hard basket, I looked at moving the small screen but put that idea into the too hard basket when I started to dismantle the console. I then thought I'd sit the 7" screen in front of the small one but as the small screen needs to be accessed occasionally, I made a basic swivel mount for the 7", still in front of the small one.

The small screen has been moved to the cupholder position before.
Would a mount for the small screen work intead?
Ideal would be integrating the small screen.

Does anyone know what kind of video input the in dash LCD has? Any chance of that feeding into a video input in a replacement SatNav/GPS

I know it's unlikely but eh, we should at least check it out!

Harry from VMS was going to use my car to get one in a D3 and I guess D4. Promises and actually doing something is a bit different
on a diffent tack. I grabed a vms Touring 500S. It is ok BUT shocking off road maps. All three laoded version are not detailed enough for me! bitof downlaoding of toppo maps fixed it AFTER adding a bigger card- DOH

Is the small screen a touch screen or just display?
