VF Sat Nav

[mc_avs]

Theres a few custom things that can be done on the mylink. Heres a quick list:
- Camera,schools ect POI for Navigation on 2014/2015 Vehicles (Which the update doesnt add)
- Custom startup logo and background theme (Red or blue Holden, HSV, Chev and a bunch of others)
- Enable HSV EDI button (Ready for an EDI to be fitted and used)
- Upgrade to a nav Mylink (If you have non-nav)

Eventually I will find more things as I do more research and development. May be able to do custom wallpapers, true custom animations.. maybe even a custom app.. who knows!

For the instrument clusters, some of the things include:
- VF Performance page enable (Show battery, coolant, oil temp, oil pressure, 0-100km/hr timer ect).
- Black and white to colour screen cluster upgrades
- Custom boot animation and background/wallpaper. When I say custom, I mean it literally, can set it to as ironman if you wanted!

Other kits include:
- Factory Tyre pressure monitoring kit
- Factory Paddle shift kit for 2014 to 2017.

Keep in mind, Holden will say that paddles cannot be added to 2014 and early 2015 VF's

Anyways.. enough of my rants! Back to the (hopeless) navigation sagas.

So how can someone like myself who lives in Adelaide get the Nav stuff etc?

For the nav POI, this change cannot be done remotely so its a post in option currently.

Ideally Id like to do those changes remotely but a much more complex remote programmer will be required. Likely something with a screen and more user input.

So when you say "post in", what exactly would I be posting in? I take it, the actual screen which has the actual processor etc built in?

Nope, the silver box behind it
The screen (Fragile part) does not need to be sent.

Ah ok, hard to get out & will this render my car undrivable until I get it back?

Iv had heaps of people do the navigation mylink upgrade to fit in a nav unit.
Its pretty easy when following picture guide as it explains it all

Next, car is drivable, the mylink is just a media source, it doesnt control the security of the car.

Ok cool, I'm waiting on my VF Workshop Manual CD to arrive so i'll have a look & see how much work is involved & then see what stuff you can do to improve it. Very interesting stuff & definitely interested, could you PM me with a more detailed analysis of what exactly you can upgrade & costs etc, greatly appreciated.

TazzI, what type of Nav do you install into the non-nav MyLink? Is it a software or a hardware change?
Is it the same as the Holden VFII satnav? Hopefully it's a better one.
