I am in the process of looking for another unit as my current JVC unit's bluetooth is in the blink.

You can have the DVD screen in view of the driver BUT it is not allow to display any movie / tv etc by law unless vehicle is stopped / turned off and handbrake applied hence rooftop / headrest screens. The earth wire for the dvd section is supposed to be earthed to the handbrake and not earthed anywhere else ie chasis etc.

If you are looking doing 1 for the patrol, I would honestly suggest looking at incorporating an offroad gps mapset like Ozi Explorer CE or similar for them like many other providers are doing with the WinCE 6.0 operating systems.

Can always throw a unit my way and happy test out lol.

Good to see another company here to support us Patrollians

Just food for thought

Hi oncedisturbed, thanks for sharing your Eonon experience, and glad to hear you enjoy them!

About the wiring, so you mean if you install a standard 2 din unit like our previous G2216, and Aerpro plug is needed? Is it the same as the one in this pic?


If so, it seems quite familiar with the D5168 harness (No. 4 in the pic):


Could you please check for us? Many thanks!

And thanks for your advice regarding the gps and anti glare film, I’ll reflect them to our R&D then. About the Win 6.0 system, our D5168 is already used this OS, welcome to get it in the future!

O.h the other issue which is quite annoying is the radio reception. Very poor. I hope the newer units are better...
Hi mudski, thanks for your info too.
About the radio reception issue, you can check as follows:
1. Make sure the radio antenna is well connected, unplug it several times to have a try.
2. Choose the right radio region.
3. Turn off the LOC function.
4. Change to another FM antenna to have a try.

Hope it helps, please have a try!
