Hello everyone, first of all I must specify, I am French and that I don't have a very good level of English, sorry for that.
Here, I would like to replace the head unit of my 2013 I30 to have something more modern and compatible Android Auto / Mirrorlink and keeping my rear view camera, my steering wheel controls and if possible the original remote microphone even if I know it is not too much of a problem.
There are a lot of models on Android on the internet like

But I am not sure that these models are suitable to replace the one currently mounted on my dear I30
I also saw that you can buy a plastic to adapt a "universal" head unit with an adapter.
I would also like to change the 4 speakers, but I don't know how to dismantle the rear side panels or the seats. (three doors)
I'm a little lost, can you help me please ?
thank you very munch for you help

:welcome:
Your English is way better than my French. Well done!
Our resident 3 door owning i30 Audio expert @CraigB will be along a bit later to give you his valued opinion. He's in Western Australia and it's only 4am there.
Basically there is a later i30 Android Auto compatible unit (called a GD-03?) Which is often available second hand online which is a relatively easy straight swap.
But Craig will fill you in with more detail when he's up and about... thanks Craig. :winker: :mrgreen:
-
I’ll help if I can, to start with does your model have the navigation unit and auto climate control? If it’s a navigation unit then the Australian GD-03 model won’t be suitable.
If you go with an aftermarket unit then you’ll likely require and Aerpro fascia :link: Hyundai i30 2012-2016 GD, GD2 | Aerpro (https://aerpro.com/vehicles/hyundai/hyundai-i30-2012-2016-gd-gd2?src=plugin) and suitable connections, which exact connections I don’t know so it might pay to speak with a local audio shop to find out what exactly is required if you’re not sure yourself.
-
Thank you for reply,
@Dazzler, thank for the compliment, I am more comfortable with writing, I need it in my work.
@CraigB Yes I have the navigation unit and auto climate control.
I heard of the GD-03 unit, I know that this unit or similar exists in France but impossible to find it.
This is why I searched and found the units mentioned in my post but I think they are made for the version without navigation, without touch screen.
It seems to me that the pinouts are different that is why I have a doubt.
The problem is that I have not found any store capable of helping me even the Hyundai dealer...

Suggest you buy a Pioneer or similar quality H U. I have Android Auto & Apple Play capability in mine and only required an extra cheap loom for steering wheel functions to work. They come with a microphone too,so just clip that on to dash above clocks etc. Easy to fit but make sure you buy correct surround approx £30 (same one that costs £100 from most retailers) I also fitted a rear camera,as unit has ability for front and rear cameras etc Also Dab radio etc.
-
@CraigB cheers mate. Can you repeat what you said about the rear speaker trim in the 3door on another thread please.

Sure can :goodjob2: I got back from the airport at 4am and tiredness had hit me.
I’ll copy paste what was written from the other topic...
“For the 3 dr if I remember correctly the installer had to remove the backseat on mine to allow the rear side panels to be peeled back from the b pillar, you need to remove the B pillar door seal and plastic scuff panel.”

Yeah if you have the navigation unit the GD-03 won’t fit due to different shape.
You’ll require the fascia FP8343 from the aerpro link I posted earlier :link: Aerpro FP8343 FACIA KIT TO SUIT HYUNDAI | eBay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aerpro-FP8343-FACIA-KIT-TO-SUIT-HYUNDAI/283744105819?epid=9025069149&hash=item421077755b:g:XaMAAOSwngJeHmF-)
Once you have the fascia the installer should be able to match up many brands that would suit and match/build the correct patch lead required.

Hello, yes but impossible to find the ISO adapter harness for my vehicle, stores cannot help me ...

All leads can be found on the Aerpro website I linked previously, then search the code in eBay to purchase :link: Aerpro APP087 Primary ISO Harness Suit Hyundai & Kia | eBay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aerpro-APP087-Primary-ISO-Harness-Suit-Hyundai-Kia/264265997594?epid=1054326683&hash=item3d877b1d1a:g:LY4AAOSwvRlbZk1e)
I've no idea which ones would be required though which is why I suggested speaking to a car audio specialist.

A link recently supplied on the forum by RatPC points to an android option :link: CES AUTOS Limited. Hyundai I30 (11 - 13) Android 9.0 RD5724 (https://www.iceboxauto.com/hyundai-i30-android-57-h5724) you'll need to use their contact link :link: CES AUTOS Limited. Contact Us (https://www.iceboxauto.com/contactus) to ask whether they have a unit that is compatible with the factory navigation type (fascia shape difference)
Seems to be the same unit as your first link :head_knock:
-
Thank you for your feedback, I found this product (Link (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AERPRO-CHHY8C-STEERING-WHEEL-CONTROL-ISO-HARNESS-FOR-HYUNDAI-I30-I40-KIA-OPTIMA/191837497487?hash=item2caa67e88f:g:RqkAAOSwCL9du1yc)) but how can I be sure it will fit on my car? I think, it doesn't keep the original microphone, so I have to make an adapter to jack?.
I found an adapter for the USB but not for the aux jack.
As for the rear speaker, the problem is that I don't know how to remove the seats. I'll watch it when the weather is better
-
Says they're for the right vehicle but I wouldn't really know as I've not installed an aftermarket system in an i30 before, that's why I suggested a car audio specialist.
Hopefully a member who has installed and android system can give some feedback on what connections are required :Good_luck:
-
I got a response from the site you mentioned, they replied
"Hi, it will be fine as long as you don't have amplified speakers.
Best wishes
Rob"
I don't really understand what it means. But I have a doubt because the adapter recovers the USB and the AUX, while for my car it is separate like this (https://www.i30ownersclub.com/forum/index.php?topic=54842.0)
Is it best to find a specific unit, or a "generic" unit with the adapter harness and a plastic front mentioned by @i30estate2016 ?
thank you very much

Hello everybody
@i30estate2016, can you tell me what type of head unit was originally fitted in your car?
-
I have just the standard radio with CD slot but a double din unit fits when you take it out,as Regards to my Pioneer H U.
Slot is same size once Factory unit is removed regardless if you have a larger sat nav screen as standard etc,so that surround and HU should fit yours if similar year to my i30.
-
Hello, I come back to you after a long time, the seller replaced the interface box but it still does not work. I do not understand. It's because my unit includes navigation? I do not understand ...
Thanks for you help
-
Hello everyone !
Do you think it is possible that the beam is different depending there is have navigation or not? because looking at the different diagrams and topics is really the impression that I have.
For example, my USB and jack port has an independent connector, but most of the time I see it in the main harness.
This explains the problems I encountered with my previous attempt ...
Has anyone ever replaced a navigation unit?
If not, can I find a newer unit that will be compatible with android auto?
-
None of the factory nav units in the GD models were Android Auto/Apple Carplay compatible as far as I know, the compliance update was only made available on the later GD models with the standard Cartronics (non navigation) units.
You'll likely have to look at a third party system and installation.
