Hello guys. I have a new Micra Dot and I must say it's great, apart from the ugly little radio thingy in the car. Just wondering before I whip it out if there's anyone who's replaced it with a slightly more modern android auto or some other satnav idea in there. I would like to do the same.
Just before Christmas, I bought a double din stereo (cheapest i could find on Ebay), took the centre console out, cut most of it out, and fitted it with a cage kit and adaptor cables. I was only going to fit a replacement unit, which actually looked like an old radio, but had bluetooth, aux etc., but the supplier couldnt deliver until the new year. You'll need a pozi screwdriver, and a dremel or grinder, a file, and I bought a cheap centre console (in case i screwed it up!). Also, I relocated the headlight adjustment switch onto the dash binnacle. If I did it again I'd spend more money, and get an Android Auto unit, but for a budget build this was perfect!
Cheers it's obviously cheap, the aux connection works but constantly displays "no input!", and there is Android support, but only for screen mirroring on Android 4.0 - 8.0. So I'm currently charging old phones to see what I've got, would be great to see Google maps running on it....
If I remember fitting to pre face-lift is easy. Remove ashtray and there's 2 screws under there
Then pull from the bottom and the centre panel will pull off.
Then there will be if I remember right 4 screws holding in the oem stereo
