So sad news :(

Looks like I'm gonna have to wait to upgrade. Misses wants a new kitchen but in a way im relived a bit. Won't get as many looks or thumbs up in another ride.

So better keep going then

I wanted something to protect the wicked new paint that has just been sanded and buffed. I had it opticoated by elite finish in Adelaide.

Opticoat is a thin ceramic coating that bonds to the cars paint. Basically it repels things like watermarks swirls scratches etc.

You never have to cut/polish or wax again.

Sounds too good to be true?

Have a look

Next stereo upgrade.

After having the 8" Eonon unit for a while now I decided to move on

The unit is great in the Essenes that it come with all the bells and whistles. NAV, big screen SD card, wheel controls etc.

It lacks in sound quality. After doing lots of research I found out that my amps and speakers are at less than half their potential using the Eonon unit.

So before everyone starts saying WTF?

I went with a single din unit. Truth be told. I hate touch screen. I don't watch DVDs in the car and I have never use the NAV... Not once lol

After trying to get best bang for buck I narrowed it down to 2 units

So I got this. The DEHQ-8500DAB

This this is great! The sound! Amazing and I haven't even done the gains properly yet lol

Has everything the old unit had just no screen. Also has 2 USB ports,SD, MIRATRAX,DAB and heaps of sound options!

The install pic-

Had to rip my interior apart.....again "sigh"

Ran the Bluetooth mic and DAB antenna but was easy as to do

Probably paint the facia when I pain the pillars...dunno yet. I'm just happy with the whole system now. What a difference!

Okay so when we painted the car we made the fatal mistake of leaving the painted engine plastics on during the respray. Unfortunately they got covered in overspray from the clear :( really looked **** even after trying to sand them back and buff them.

So for an event this month I decided to colour code them to the custom black.

Came out great for a quick job :)

Wait wait, made in Thailand? I'm pretty sure it was assembled in the Altona plant over here in Melbourne. I'll give you some credit for the fact you see plenty of Thai made parts in various parts of the car.

Really? I always thought it was made over there, based on the South East Asian "camry"

Is there any part of the car I can find out where it was made?

You guys have rocked my fragile little mind lol

All those updates and you focus on that lol ;)

Hey man you have done some awesome work with the aurion, i was wondering can i get some info off you about the eonon unit you had, what model was it? Was it worth it getting the unit? Was the sound quality better or the same from the original factory unit?

or is it not worth getting and get a better branded double din?

Also mate congrats on the little one.
