When I get home i will upload installation pictures. If you converted your wiring to a non factory mavigation wiring it will be plug and play. Wiring setup is completely different then FA wiring. Of the top Of my head i think the 14pin connector you are talking about goes straight to the radio not to the dvd unit.

From whom did you order the unit? There are quite a few vendors out there in alibaba.

How Long did it take to arrive?

Your installation result is highly anticipated! Thanks

I finally installed the unit everything was plug and play ,pretty straight foward there is no way you will make a mistake because connectors only go one way. I tried snaping pictures while installing but it was way to late. (11:00 pm ) Everything works, when I say everything i mean everything. For anyone with a 2007-2008 there is a few tabs that have to be trimmed on the lower parts of the unit, where the china unit meets your factory radio it was really simple 4 minute fix. Also, 2009-2010 center vent is needed as well. Tomorrow i will have some pictures is 1:30 am here in Florida.

I also noticed that on the sellers website they say the operating aystem is wince 5.0 well that's
Wrong because it's wince 6.0. For everyone asking I purchased my unit from The link posted below . I received it 3 business days after the unit was shipped

Hey looks like there's two other manufacturers out there, aside from FA: LSQ Star and Road Rover.
Do you guys know the main differences?

I can play 2+GB, 2.5-hr avi/xvid files via USB on my FA.

Also as important is whether it keeps your last play spot when you turn off and on the car, and my FA 2nd-gen does.

Still, even if this unit doesn't, that's a hellava buy for 5 *****.

Uh oh!

Sounds like your battery was drained somehow. When was the last time you changed your battery?
