    Then a non Sat-Nav EX it is then. Cheers for the info Salim.

    Yes I understand it has other control functions. it might complicate things too much, but would look awesome I think.

    I probably won't get a Nav model like I have mentioned previously, as my new Head Unit will be an up to date Nav Unit (as well as DAB DVD etc). The only way I would consider a Nav model is if I could send a video feed to it permanently. I have seen elsewhere a Reverse camera fed to the Navi...

    So has Toffee Pie got it wrong earlier in this thread? All I really need to know for certain is if I remove the amp, will all the C/C & A/C work without any issues whatsoever. My new Head Unit will have Nav functions, so a non Nav model is what I will go for.

    All the effort to keep a Nav Screen working isn't wort it IMO. I am happy to buy a non Nav model EX, but these I believe come with the Premium Sound System (& lower dash mounted amplifier), & so I just need to know if I can remove the amplifier behind the lower dash without causing issues with...

    Upgrading the Accord iCDTi ICE. Many Questions (& hopefully Answers too!)

    I'm happy to leave the unit in place, & run everything audio related thru my new Nav Double DIN Head Unit, but if the interior temp reading is related to the amplifier somehow, the A/C would probably malfunction, or it might stop the Climate Control from working correctly. I could live with...

    Just checked, the car on Auto Trader it's an SE so not even part leather.... http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201404143313480/usedcars/postcode/BR13JT/radius/1500/make/HONDA/model/ACCORD/price-from/3000/price-to/6000/sort/ageasc/page/1

    Upgrading the Accord iCDTi ICE. Many Questions (& hopefully Answers too!)

    I can find fascia adapters on eBay for the area shown here but I think the issues on the Executive or Sport are caused by the external (Alpine) amplifier which takes up part of the area. Logic would suggest you can just unplug & remove the Amplifier on the Premium Sound (non Nav models), then...

    Toffee Pie any more info please? I need to know for certain if I can fit an aftermarket Double DIN Head Unit into the gap under the Honda Sound System on a non Nav i-CDTi either in EX or Sport trim levels. Bypassing the A/C is not an option. If I can't then I'm gonna have to look at maybe a...

    Upgrading the Accord iCDTi ICE. Many Questions (& hopefully Answers too!)

    Why is that? Do you have some more details? That's a huge compromise I'm not willing to accept. No one has mentioned that at all previously on this thread. If I need to avoid a Sat Nav car that isn't an issue, but fitting a double din is essential & if it isn't possible then I need to look a...

    Looks like a Nav model is going to be off the menu. just popped into Newton Honda South Croydon Parts Dept, looked up the Navigator & indeed there is a Rom drive taking up a single din space. I looked for a connecting cable between the Nav display & the Rom drive & there is no direct cable just...

    Upgrading the Accord iCDTi ICE. Many Questions (& hopefully Answers too!)

    Many thanks Dave for the info. Well if I go for a Nav model, the rear door speaker feed will be replaced by that from the front doors and used only for the navigation audio feed, the rest of the speakers will be replaced by aftermarket ones, & fed by my new head unit & JL Audio amplifier. I need...

    Can you (or anyone else) tell me which speakers the navigation directions come thru? This is very important as if it's thru the fronts only I will need to swap that feed over to the rear doors to make my intended system work. Btw Salim thanks for all your continued help/advice

    I will look into the possibility of extending the loom on a Nav & placing the ROM unit in the glovebox, under a front seat or in the boot...... or just go Nav on my new Head Unit.

    Upgrading the Accord iCDTi ICE. Many Questions (& hopefully Answers too!)

    Looks like I need to go for a non Nav car then as the ICE is more important than Navigation. I have DVD & Freeview TV going in plus reverse cameras etc & sound quality is paramount.

    Thanks Salim, I was hoping it would fit here but you say the Sat-Nav Rom is situated behind there? I might have to forget the Sat-Nav then as I have a phone with Sat-Nav and would rather i had a better quality Head Unit that didn't rely on speaker-RCA converters etc for the amp input...

    speaker upgrade

    I don't mean to hijack the thread but have a few questions regarding the speakers & sound system generally in the 7th Gen Accord i-CDTi, as I am looking to purchase one very soon, & want to get as much planned out as possible so I hit the ground running. I have started a new thread so as not...

    I will be buying a 7th Gen i-CDTi Saloon (around 2007/8) soon. It will be either the EX or Sport either with or without Sat-Nav. so here goes with the questions....... 1) Other than the part Leather vs full Leather interior, what are the main differnces between the Sport & Executive? Ride...
