January 30th, 2018 08:46 AM #1My mom's planning to purchase a 2018 Innova E DSL. Hindi pa pala touch screen yung head unit nun. Kung papapalitan ko ba yung head unit (and palagyan narin ng backup camera) bago irelease yung unit, nasa magkano kaya babayaran ko?
Ayoko sana isapalaran na bumili ng aftermarket head unit and back cam sa banawe baka kasi mavoid yung warranty. And for peace of mind na din.

January 30th, 2018 09:44 AM #2Don't bother with a casa head unit... the toyota dealerships normally carry the AVT units which come on the higher end Innova and Fortuner variants but they aren't very good din.
Super mahal pa ng casa head units, nasa 30-50, and for the same/lower price, you can get a top of the line head unit from a good brand like Pioneer or Kenwood.
What you can do is have the installing shop use proper wiring harnesses to make sure that there is 0 cutting/splicing involved when they are installing your new head unit. Cheapest head units from pioneer will cost from 15k up. If you want nice mirroring features that you don't get on the AVT units anyway, you can go all the way up to 35-40k din, and will still come out cheaper than getting from the casa hehe.
Pag may ipa warranty ka sa sound system, madali lang ibalik sa stock head unit.

November 1st, 2018 11:09 PM #6I'm planning to have the HU changed on our 2 week old Innova as well. Sabi nung lot/inventory custodian ng Toyota Makati, pag nagpainstall sa non-casa ng after market products that involves anything electrical mavovoid ang warranty. He suggests na bilin na lang ung parts na gusto ipakabit tapos sa casa ipa-labor para daw valid pa ang electrical warranty. Any thoughts on this?

November 1st, 2018 11:12 PM #7well, if the warranty as alluded to by the person you spoke to, is written down on paper, then i suppose it is true.
be ready to pay, however.
but... marami namang nagpapa-upgrade sa labas ng casa, na wala namang masamang nangyari sa electricals nila.
what would i do?
nuthin.
i'm bone-stock.

Some Banawe shops install aftermarket accessories better than dealers ...
