Exactly

I have not had a problem with glare, as you can see taking photos of if is challenging. If I had a sunroof then it might be a problem.

You shouldn't have any problems with glare in the 370z because of how low in the dash the radio mounts. If you've got the roadster it may be a problem. But it's been fine as far as I've seen.

So i am about to pull the trigger on this unit. It looks like you used the stock housing from the Base Head unit dash (to the OP). Can you confirm? If so i like how it looks flusher than most Double dins in these cars.

Do you have any pictures of it turned on at night? I don't it to be overpoweringly bright at night that'll distract me.

EDIT: Also how are you liking the Stock iGo navigation? Does it have "night" mode where the images changes color like on other navigation systems?

Yes it is the stock housing.

Believe it or not it can automatically adjust colors at night I didn't know this until I was setting up the radio.

You can set it to adjust when you turn on the headlights or based on the time of day. The display changes so that it looks better when the interior of the car is dark.

I have no regrets purchasing the Parrot Asteroid Smart its a nice unit.

I installed the same unit in my 2014 6MT a week ago. It looks great and this unit is packed with features. I'm still getting the hang of how some of it works, but it is fairly intuitive. The touch screen is fast. I also have a Tesla Model S. I'm used to a fast touch screen and tons of on-board features. This unit does not disappoint. Thanks to the original poster for showing it. I didn't even know Parrot made something this cool.

Excellent! I actually placed my order last night, should be here tomorrow along with an OBII bluetooth adapter for the Torque app. I'm excited to install this weekend!

ajrdu I see you are in the Raleigh area..as am I :)

Post pics when you've got it in! You'll love this thing. Best android DDIN on the market if you ask me. As far as the night mode, you can actually adjust the brightness. I found stock night mode a bit too bright for my tastes so I dimmed it down slightly.

I still have to get myself an OBII plug for the torque app. Should have probably done that a long time ago.

Welp got it installed and it looks wonderful and sounds fantastic. I only have one issue.

When I turn off the car it says "Goodbye" .. I left the car and came back 15 minutes later to find the White LED power button on! The unit was still off and pushing the button didn't turn the radio on (car was off). So i turned the car on, unit booted up, turned it off (It said Goodbye). The white LED went off but then came back on again.

Is this normal?

So i noticed it didn't have any Remote Turn on cable so i wired my amp to the Antenna. however, i noticed some people just wire the Antenna power and amp power to the Red ACC cable.

How did you wire your antenna and amp (if you have one) on your Parrot?

Yes you can use the ACC wire to trigger your amps on and off, if you use the antenna wire you will only see power when listening to radio. Unless their blue wire is for everything which some are. Not sure what to make of the led problem. possibly needed a firmware upgrade?

I am on 2.1.5 which is the most stable. The latest was released a few weeks ago that's 2.3.xxx..but a lot of reports with Bugs. Another thing, my iPod i kept charging while the car is off. So the radio is still getting power :/ (The Constant is with Constant yellow cable i made sure those were correct).

My power light usually stays flashing for about 20 minutes after the dome light goes out. It shuts down eventually. I think it stays on like that so if you're making a quick stop (like for gas) it doesn't have to fully reboot. Because if you didn't notice it does take a bit of time to turn on. Try turning the car off and then getting out and watching for a while. Doors closed.

Yeeeaa.....Mine did a super fast boot when i turned the car on this morning (8 hours of it being off)....i'm going to just double check the wiring this evening. I know the new 2.3.38.06 version of the Parrot lets you adjust that "Stand by mode timing"...but there are just too many bugs that i read about. Other than that i am loving the unit so far!

I guess the main thing is that i do not want to come one morning to find my car's battery dead because i hadn't turned it on in 3 days or so

On another note.....I decided to test out my universal volume knob with this thing :)

StarvMarv,

That's a cool volume knob. Where did you get it? And all you did was just hooked it up via usb and it worked?

Thats pretty sick man. You gonna mount that in one of the blanks in your center console?
