NoOne1223 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 (edited) As the title says, pictures are gone. Anyone have pictures of how the JDM conversion looks on USDM 05-09lgts? Having seen how different they are and that the dual zone controls are reversed, is there any way to correct that? EDIT: just realized that they control their respective side... Also, In need of the top half for the JDM conversion (the big square hole), and don't have the funds to buy a whole kit, plus i have the HVAC controls already as this conversion has apparently already been done on my car Edited May 29, 2021 by NoOne1223 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a little expensive, but better than 3-400 for the whole kit! Hopefully I can get the last one before it disappears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEE-OTTO Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 For those with the JDM kit, have you ever ran into an issue where upon starting the car the HVAC system is set to FULL blower at whatever temp you last had it set and is unresponsive ? Recently mine has been doing this, and after a few mile i can turn it off but its just bizarre. I guess i should order a replacement before it completely kicks the bucket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elomo64 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Just buy a scoche us version and cut it. I've done that for 2 kits. Do you have any pics? I'm considering going this route, but I'm not sure I can cut the plastic and make it look nice :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoozeRS05 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) Here's the setup I've been working on for quite some time. I was new to stereo/electric updates until this year, but now it's not so intimidating. I'm having trouble getting the gaps filled in around the shifter and HVAC, and my oil pressure gauge isn't receiving the correct power voltage so I can't save settings, but otherwise I'm very happy and everything is working great.

busyychild Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 (edited) Just finished my install. Below is a simple breakdown of my setup: Dash Kits: H0017AG920 - JDM Single Din Cubby Kit H6217AG911 - JDM Double Din Kit (w/ i88 and i85 adapters) Electronics: Sony XAV-AX8000 Double Din halo style stereo (Single DIN install) Generic 7" Double Din Android stereo (Used only as a screen for BtSsm) Metra ASWC-1 VAG-COM KKL USB OBD2 Cable Android Software: BtSsm (Gauges Displayed: Boost, IAM, AFR, Coolant Temp, Fuel Correction, FLKC, FKC, Batt) Autostart and StaY! (Runs BtSsm on Android boot) * Winter wheels don't have TMPSs installed * Cubby info screen isn't plugged in. The OEM Nav loom doesn't have the plug for it. May install something more interesting there in the future Edited January 31, 2022 by busyychild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisJ404 Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Another big thanks to Raul at TightFitFab (k00laid83) - he quickly shipped me all the parts I needed to upgrade my 2006 Outback stock radio to a modern head unit (Kenwood DPX794BH). What a difference! Will try to post a before & after pic below. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk Thanks, it wasn't a cheap project. $325 for the JVM parts, $125 for all the wiring harnesses, $260 for the Kenwood and $300 for labor (Cartunes Atlanta did the install).

limezest Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Does anyone have a compatible part number for crimps on the i88 (female) and 14-pin head unit (male) connector? These look likely, but it would be super helpful if anyone can confirm. http://www.easternbeaver.com/Main/Elec__Products/Connectors/040_Connectors/040_connectors.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecDubC Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) So I'll probably be getting the i88 with antenna and stereo i85. Question regarding this, I have the P-204UH and swapping the LHD EDM model in so I don't have the issues with the RHD JDM fitment bias along w the Russian double din trim for aftermarket stereo. Just making sure this is going to work the same. Going into a 2008 USDM gt limited without nav. Thanks in advance.
