Car accessories for Honda Elevate: Android infotainment system & more

Other items that I got for my Elevate SV include a reverse camera, damping sheets and speakers.

BHPian yogesh498 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

After a wait of a few months, I finally added Android infotainment and speakers with double-layer damping, along with the reverse parking camera, to my Elevate SV.

Though the finishing and installation are not the quality I expected, this still needs further work to finish the installation process.

After a few months of consideration, I finally got the following stuff.

Blaupunkt jamaica 990 - 4GB RAM/64GB Storage

Priority always was for the navigation with a good enough display and usability. Though Sony, Pioneer system has great music output, I still went with Android for ease of use and some OS-based functionality. It's not easy to get Android Auto and Carplay in 9 or 10" infotainments in Sony or Pioneer head units so overall, the Blaupunkt with a 2-year warranty is a good choice.

Morel Maximo MK2 combo speakers

I did not want additional amplifier installation, so I avoided all kinds of amplification units, and the Blaupunkt with Morel Maximo combo output is good enough without any need for an amplifier.

Damping sheets & reverse camera

I have also added STP silver damping sheets and a Blaupunkt AHD DH 4.4 reverse number plate camera.

Elevate has little wind noise because of a lack of door beading, so we added STP silver dual-layer dampings for wind noise cancellation and good speaker performance.

Extra things added include a Honda steering wheel control coupler, HU frame, and additional wiring (which is not required, just a speaker harness required).

All products are purchased at the Winkel (Oshiwara, Mumbai) store (they also have a website). Made a wrong decision there as they didn't have enough knowledge of the work and misguided us on after-market products, and the installation guys did pathetically cheap work. The frame doesn't fit, and I am still waiting for him to replace it.

I was hoping someone from Mumbai could help me with some professional installers or people who could rectify the poor workmanship done in the Elevate.
