Has anyone installed this Pioneer AV receiver in a 2.5 Roadster? Any reason it wouldn't work?
Thanks!

Have Pioneer AVIC-60DAB installed in 2.0 Roadster with 2.5 dashboard upgrade. Works fine. AVIC-8000 NEX (US) seems to be the same as AVIC-60DAB (Germany/Europe).

Is there any reason to get the 8000 over the cheaper ones if your NAV will come from your phone via CarPlay?
I'm planning on putting this head unit into my 2.0. I bought an Elise dash and just had it modified. I also picked up a double DIN binnacle from another member here. Just waiting on the vents and ducts to come in and then I'll get it installed.
I'm no longer happy with my single din flip up pioneer and want to use CarPlay with a capacitive touchscreen.
Do you know if the person you purchased the double din from has any more? Also, did the elise dash fit perfectly or did it have to be modified (other than the modifications to fit a double din).
My roadster is all plastic inside, no leather wrapped parts. So it seems the lotus dash will fit my needs just fine. Now to find a reasonably priced double din binnacle.
The guidance lines are from the head unit. It is a fairly simple process to lay tape lines behind the car, then use the screen on the head unit to match them. The lines are steeply angled because the camera is so low to the ground (like everything in this fun little car). The custom shop mounted the camera on the bottom of the license plate, so no holes in the car and it is very subtle. They are mounting a forward camera today, so I don't run up onto curbs and damage the car like I did my BMW. I may be able to get some pictures of the camera mounts later and post them if anyone is interested.Look like you have guidance lines on your backup camera? Is that specific to the head unit or the backup camera you installed?
Dashboard upgrade has been made by Tesla SC. They fixed rear view camera and cable to dashboard. Did AVIC installation myself. Could use supplied harness but had to solder some wires. Roadster subwoofer amp needs remote power and RCA audio from head unit.WHO and where did you DO the work? and can you show US some pics?!
@Aztec250, your upgrades look great! I am in San Mateo and recently purchased #425 and am envious of your very nice upgrades Maybe someday we can meet up. I can't afford to do all that any time soon, but hope to eventually. Love that huge rear view camera in a Roadster! After owning a Model S for nearly a year I am spoiled.
