Nice, very nice... just a thought - do you think the mike can be hidden behind the grill of the motion sensor? or, it would impede the operation of the sensor? if it works out, than the mike is totally invisible...

very nice - I think that anyone who doesn't have a factory nav, and wants an upgraded system, should consider this setup...

now, factory nav - that could be challenging in wiring, as the radio is split unit, half in the front, half in the trunk...

i like this - good job, four.8!!! Enjoy

now I just need a piano black trim to update the cockpit even more...
seems like I had no luck finding one on ebay.de or .com so I might try painting mine...

T, I think the microphone can't be hidden behind the grille unfortunately..i might try it but since its very directional, (tried it), you'll have to talk directly towards it...maybe a better mic should work ?i really liked the oem one...

EDIT: For the ones with factory NAV, just get the FAKRA cable which is about 50$..shouldnt take more than 2 hrs to take it all the way back to the trunk then you are done..might as well do the PDC and rear view camera in the same time.

Looks good. :thumbup:

I wedged the GPS antenna between center vent tube and dash and it has been working perfect from that location. For mic, I'm still using the mic built in the unit (located on face of the unit, not external). I've been told they could hear me fine, not perfect, good enough so I haven't used the external mic.

ok here it is...You can see where i tucked away the gps antenna right under the roof rack..the length of the wire was just perfect for that location..take the weather stripping out and pull a little on the headliner...find some metal so attach it to via its own magnet.

By then, Dynavin will release newer model with more features and improvements and you will want that instead... :)

the more I think about it, with the NEWNESS (potential for some bugs with hard/software) and the fact that I have my wedding in 6 months, I'm gonna hold off on this purchase till a longer term review can be made. .
who knows by then maybe Dynavin will use a multi direction mic and have software all updated for this.
I'll follow along so please keep updates going guys.
Not just Four.8iS, but anyone who buys one please write your reviews in this thread.

perhaps... but I will know FOR SURE that the DSP portion will work long term and so will the other features. Plus I don't like buying the first year of ANYTHING. I got caught up in the excitement of this item. I'd probably buy after 6 months of North American testing honestly. Just to make sure the bugs are worked out of all.
I'd really like to see how a few more months are on this device.

Plus, my wedding is going to need to be paid for... this stereo upgrade is strictly a toy. So wedding plans win :)

if anyone gets tired of me posting pictures please let me know so I can stop :rofl:

Im just really pumped about this thing..:cool:..

I see the nav in this thing more like for long drives and such..around town is good but it might take some time to search around and im just more used to my phone at the moment..

quick shots below.

And second update..I learned how to choose a new start-up screen...and guess what I chose?lemans blueeeeee :D..Im really likin' this thing and you guys are missing out big time if not ordering one soon:nanana:

Dude that friggin thing looks sooooooo damn good, keep posting pics all the time for all I care.

Heres a question if you plug your Lightning USB Cable in and plug your phone in does it also charge the phone if playing music etc?

I read on JT distributing site that the maps updates are good for 30 days, is this true

From Dynavin comparison page, N6 shows boot time from when the doors are unlocked. Does N6 turn on when you unlock the doors? Are you able to add apps or is the unit specific to DynOS?
