Title: Australian GD nav stereo swap to GD-03
Post by: Cackmobile on March 02, 2017, 10:02:11

Hi Team,
I have a GD 2013 with the factory navi head unit. Ive managed to source a 2016 carplay gd-03 which i want to install. I took the navi out and put the other in. Had a few issues. It fires up but no radio signal (i think it uses the old antenna adapter from the fd) and no reverse camera. There was a left over ISO with a few wires. Unfortunately there isnt a wiring diagram on the navi unit like the gd-03. Anyone have any idea on how to make it work

But with a name like he has, I'd be wary of taking his advice.   :lol:

I've done the conversion from a gd-01 to gd-03 only thing not working is reverse camera because my car don't have one.

Welcome Duc609. Thanks for that. Have you considered adding an aftermarket reversing camera from ebay? Some are apparently quite good for the price...

Yeah will be putting a reverse camera soon but wanted to do the genuine one but it's just too expensive to buy. Any idea what good aftermarket camera? Thanks

Somebody recommended this one for the FD model (not sure if it also suits the GD)

I haven't bought from them either....

Then there is this one on Ebay (+ many cheaper Chinese / Hong Kong ones)

Also worth checking what Supercheap and the other auto accessory places have on display (they sometimes have them connected up so you can see the quality.
