Vauxhall Cascada came in for a few extras, one was our touchscreen upgrade on the CD600 along with our Vauxlink module for Touchscreen Apple Car play/ Android Auto and Reverse Camera fitted too

Why this? ❓

Well this module piggybacks the factory radios with the large colour displays

This means no changes to the car physically or electronically no lag compared to Android radios, maintains the car completely as it is now which means Infinity sound is fully supported as the factory radio remains fitted, also VXR, Sport and Tour buttons too

The module has its own Bluetooth built in too, so will add Audio streaming to any unit without Bluetooth Audio or it can be used via the original Bluetooth if your radio supports Bluetooth Audio

The unit adds wireless Apple Car Play and Android Auto, with or without touchscreen (uses the control k**b on the radio controls for none touch), it also has its own support for Reverse Camera as if fully factory and USB Movie Playback too

We sell these with or without touchscreen conversion, Reverse Camera is also an option too and available on our website

The module will work with CD500, CD600, DVD800, NAVI600/900, NAVI650/950

Recent Insignia B with us for a Reverse Camera on the Navi900 factory system

£120 Supplied and fitted including reprogramming of the factory radio, which gives an automatic activation on reverse gear being engaged with moving guidelines

Today we had a cracking Cascada along with a great specification, we added a multitude of extras but the first was our autofolding add-on to the already factory fitted Powerfolding mirrors

On the Cascada, Astra J/K, Insignia and Zafira C etc it's possible to modify the mirror switch and add a relay to make the mirrors fold on deadlocking and unlocking the car, essentially the relay acts as a way of pressing the switch from the lock/unlock actions

£60 for this modification to already fitted Powerfolding mirrors, we also have several sets of Cascada Powerfolding mirrors ready for supply and fit and wr can also supply and fit Powerfolding mirrors to all of the above vehicles including the Autofold option as part of the setup and installation

Drop us a message if you're looking to do this

We have been busy with a lot of stuff I haven't posted on here lately, one of these is our CD450 Units which we have posted out four in this last week alone

These radios upgrade the original CD400 adding Bluetooth for calls and music, USB and optional DAB

These fit the Astra J, Meriva B, Zafira C and Insignias

The easiest way to upgrade to Bluetooth but keep the car factory

Available on our website www.vauxterations.co.uk

A local customer came to us for an Upgrade from the CD400, she specifically asked to stay OEM and not fit anything aftermarket, this is where we stepped in and fitted a Navi650

Navi650 with Reverse camera, usb, dab, 7".colour display and Bluetooth for calls and music

This is as fully factory fitted, but not only this we also added our Vauxlink module aswell

This module adds Apple Car Play and Android Auto directly to the factory Navi650 system, this means no slow Android radio, no compatibility or lagging issues, keeping everything completely factory and as Vauxhall intended

Job complete and all done in a few hours, unfortunately no pictures of the Reverse Camera as I forgot but nothing that hasn't been seen before. 😁

Customer came along with there own HMI 2.5 which they had swapped from the HMI 2.0, This was now showing as theft locked on the display

Vin Relearn, Custom Calibrations & Software update applied to this HMI for Android Auto Support. We also software updated the radio too

Now the customer has Apple car play and Android Auto on his 2014 Vauxhall Insignia

Ok so here is a job I didn't really have much excitement for especially as it was a tourer and these are awful in their own tights just to fit the camera never mind upgrading to the Navigation system

The customer came to us after he had installed an Android aftermarket system and wasn't happy with it, slow, lagging and more complicated to use

This is where he asked about going from the RF400 to the Navi900 with Android Auto and Apple car play

Radio changed, multitudes of wiring changed, MOST bus circuit modified to include the HMI, HMI wired with custom wiring and Reverse Camera added

Very time consuming job with it being a tourer especially but we got there in the end, all tested and working, Navigation menu added to his instrument cluster and all usual extras

Now he has the full factory Navi900 with Android Auto and Apple Car Play as well as the Reverse Camera with Automatic activation on Reverse

A lot of people have asked about this job and we have this job again next month, so may become a popular one going forward

Astra J in for a Navi650 fitted in place of the original CD400

Navi650 fitted with 7" Colour Display, Reverse Camera, USB and Bluetooth for calls and music

Wiring changes made, factory microphone fitted, 180° Reverse Camera fitted into the rear bumper, all programming made including extras onto the instrument cluster

Happy customer with a quick turn around, we do these regularly and have done for years now.

Not a great deal of pictures for this as it's quite time consuming

Phil's Astra VXR came along for Infinity sound retrofitted onto his Navi950

All original speakers removed and the 2ohms Infinity factory Speakers were installed

3 wiring looms fitted which consists of the power and subwoofer loom, Body loom with speaker outputs running to all 4 speakers, dashboard loom running the tweeters, centre speaker and connections to the factory radio for audio input to the amplifier, amplifier activation and control wires

Flexi floor installed to cover the subwoofer and finnally Radio reprogrammed for infinity support

All completed and actually didn't take as long as we expected it to aswell, a couple of minor bits like the boot Offside carpet is slightly different for the infinity cars and the door grill badges need fitting yet.

We have a full kit available £450 including installation with flex floor
