I have a 2011 G37xS coupe with Navigation, Bose, and Backup Camera. I bought a step-down converter and just needing to know what wires splice into.
I need to know the same as well. My backup camera does not work.

Very nice Job! But Still a few questions.

James Bond Spectre:



This was in the garage with LED lighting. Even so, color is very good. Screen resolution is light years ahead of the factory screens. I'm happy.

QUESTIONs:
Can you still browse the internet like browser and or YouTube while using this? I assume if you chose built in CarPlay you have to buy the usb dongle? Not sure because sometimes car play nowadays is wireless :/ really confused. And because you have CarPlay now as the main screen? It looks nothing like the original Tesla screen style with the Infiniti Car on the main screen. Is that permanent because you’ve installed CarPlay? Or if you have your phone unplugged it goes back to that screen and vice versa (when you plug in phone it goes to CarPlay screen)??

Please help haha it would be greatly appreciated. Just worried about dropping good money on a good product without having questions answered. Thankyou in advance!!

Hey, wondering if any seen or purchased the 13.6in unit with 2k resolution, seems Phoenixautomotiveinc doesn't sell it so I'm curious, I contacted rhinoradio whis selling the unit n had them send me a pic. What do you guys think, also some how it's the same price as the 12.1in.

Not the actual 13.6in unit for our car, I believe the demo video is for the Ford focus n doesn't have the 2k resolution.

I went ahead and order this one, it look like one of the newer model PX6.1 8.1 android, plus it is a full size screen without the *****. Hope everything goes well with the installation. It’s going in my 08 G37 coupe with Navi and back up camera. I will post pics once installation is done. Shipping going be between 2 to 3 weeks.

I found the company that actually makes the units for our car, everywhere else is simple an authorize seller and for some reason they didn't have the 13.6" unit on their website which is the only reason why I didn't buy it because I feel like it's some knockoff, also I never heard of rhinoradio radio until I started researching, which also kinda kept me from buying but I hope all works for you.

Yea I was thinking the same but I think Phoenix and Rhino is just the middle guys, all of these screens come from some distributors in China. So it really don’t matter if buy from rhino or Phoenix. If you look at Alibaba website they have variety style of these screens for all makes and models

When. I ask the lady why that was she just said " that's the price" but if it works for you I'll probably se d mine back n get the 13.6 unit. Plzzzz keep us posted.
