Aftermaket GPS navigation with Bluetooth

[Roaming Refuge]

Having used the HEMA Navigator I can heartily recommend them.

Hema Navigator > Home

Integrated BT and able to fit reversing cam, good large, easy to read screen, can upload maps including toppographic.

Not cheap but it's the best unit I've seen (Motorhomes, 4WDs, tour coaches etc).

All fitted. No major problems. I had to change the pins on the plug as the PWR & ING where reversed, also the power antenna pin was in the wrong spot & was getting power so disconnected that as it in not needed.

The unit did not come with a sleeve to slide it into so I just slid it into the dash & secured it using packing on each side & then cable-tied it in at the back so it can't be remove from the front.

Touch screen works OK & looks good, although the screen does tilt it is of no use as it tilts the wrong way to angle it at the driver/ passenger. this is because the transporter dash is already on a tilt. Not sure if any unit would tilt the other way.

RADIO/TV - tuned in straight away & found all stations 18FM, 6AM pre-sets. has radio station names on FM & some station show song playing.

DVD/USB & SD all worked no problems.

GPS - the maps that came with the unit were I-GO, I would say the are for a smaller screen & are slightly blocky, radio cuts out during announcements & it tells you when you are speeding according to the current roads speed limit.

IPOD - I have an iPhone, the blue-tooth worked fine & linked straight away. When I plugged it into the iPod lead a warning came on my phone to say I should put the phone on aeroplane mode. (This often happens when i plug my phone into accessories) The unit seem to only play & navigate the play list that the Ipod is set to when you plug it in. I could be wrong about this I haven't play with that very much.

REVERSE CAMERA - Shows lines on screen for car width & 1M to 4M lines for distance. Fitted it just above number plate, couldn't find the reverse switch so I ran a lead from the reversing light to the unit so it comes on when reversing.
