Not actually from a Civ, but I guess that this is what they will look like:

From the new 09 accord i think?? or poss a shot from the new 09 civic??...

Pottsy · 4th November 2008, 18:37

They are from the Accord, but I'm pretty sure it's the same system that the Civ is getting.

I've used the accord system a few times now for showroom demos etc and found it quite simple to use and pretty functional. I've also been using the New Jazz audio unit a fair bit for the same reasons and for a small car, it really is pretty damn good. Lets hope the Civic carries across the same functionality.

Looks very sensible and clear....
Can we say a "Well done" Honda or is that a tad over the top?

Pottsy · 4th November 2008, 20:19

I don't think so! It is very good and easy to use. It's very responsive and clear too. And in the new Accord with the Premium sound thing, the quality is great!

Shame it missed the 06 Civic though...

St Thomas · 4th November 2008, 20:20

Agree about the Civic....

Thanmos · 5th November 2008, 11:31

That's from a navi screen, right?
I wonder how it'll look like in a non-navi dash...

jj69 · 5th November 2008, 12:26

I want it !
Still hoping to be able to retrofit it on the 06MY

It is.

In the non navi it will have a line of text under the clock. Each press of display will give the folder name, track number and name, file data and so on.

On both cars a long press on the +/- on the steering wheel moves folders and a short press moves tracks.

Thanmos · 5th November 2008, 18:47

Sounds neat, too...
Hope the 1.4 car will have it here in Greece...

Hondakias · 5th November 2008, 20:35

The 1,4 will have it.
Let's hope that one day Greece will stop being a third world country and the cars sold here will be available with navi systems, even the ones priced less than 30,000-40,000 Euros

can i post the image in the italian civic club site?

Pottsy · 6th November 2008, 18:41

Yes, attributed.

czechplastik · 7th November 2008, 12:21

Looks good, a few years late though!

scrofts007 · 18th November 2008, 15:42

Any news on whether it will retro fit into a 2008 (easily)?

I am waiting with £'s burning holes in pockets, but don't want to jump in the wrong direction!

NH Dan · 18th November 2008, 17:13

I have a feeling it wont be as easy as just plugging it in, otherwise it would have been done a lot longer ago.

r1ckster2000 · 25th November 2008, 08:38

Here's hoping! Id like it in mine too

alanwalne · 25th November 2008, 09:08

Will the USB control control an ipod, or is it just for music on a USB stick?

If it's the matter of pluging a cable (not an adapter) that would mean firmware upgrade for both satnav (display new source, and why not be able to follow the current track in the selection menu) and head unit (enable aux-in - just like on the sedan HU - and maybe USB host if it's available).
And their are plenty of solutions Honda could use to prevent us from doing this kind of upgrade

I think the real issue is a firmware upgrade ...
