It's too large for factory screen, you'd have to cut it to spec. But you can buy to spec from seller. Just give them the exact spec you want.

How do I have the unit default to displaying navigation on startup? I want it to always be on the nav screen unless I make a different selection. The Eonon unit on my E39 defaults to what was last displayed when the ignition is turned off -radio, nav, dvd, usb etc.

It would also be easier to help you if you post a picture of the cable you have, the back of your unit etc. Otherwise now I would have to remove my unit, figure out what you're talking about etc. I guess that's why you haven't gotten any prior response.

The prior unit was a business cd one. Non nav. Can't find a port to plug the steering wheel cable in.

Problem solved. No. Need to plug that cable in. Looks like there was a loose connection to the CAN box.

to clarify the last couple posts.

The Canbus/ibus box does not plug into anything on the car, it only plugs in on one side to the dynavins wire harness.

Daylight savings ended and so now my system is 1 hour ahead. GPS shows the correct time though. I thought the system synchronizes time with the GPS time. The time zone setting does not allow going back one from the current setting of 5 i.e. there's not setting for 4. I'm in the Pacific NorthWest.

Any ideas?

Its in the radio system settings menu, on the west coast we are at GMT -8:00.

Hhmm, so something's wrong with my system, eh? Mine shows only +5 to +10, and I can't scroll up or down. If I try to scroll using the scroll bar or the vertical redline, the menu closes. Got the latest firmware.

As the picture shows the system time shown is 11:22am but actual time is 10:22am. GPS shows the correct time.

Just read the whole thing - I already bought the N6 and the fakra cable. I'll be replacing the stock NAV, installing a reverse camera, and upgrading speakers and sub. I'll post about everything once done....
