Hi guys,

Im looking into getting a Accord Euro, and a tomtom 910 with the carconnect kit. does anyone here have that kit? or does anyone know if it is able to interface with the head unit in the car?

thanks for your replies :)

mm ive done a bit of googleing.

the tomtom car connect kit uses ISO connectors, which i dont think the honda head unit has. so i think something like this adapter (https://sslrelay.com/www.justcarkitsonline.co.uk/sess/utn;jsessionid=15457d62a9ddbbf/shopdata/0015_Parrot+Installation+Adaptors/product_details.shopscript?article=0130_Honda%2Bto %2BISO%2Badaptors%2B=28HON02TEL=29) should do the job to provide them, right?

if i get that cable, would it let me mute the radio with it, or would i still have to turn it down?

also, does the euro luxury have the standard or premium sound system? (im thinking premium = satnav, and standard is what all the others have?)

thanks guys (and girls)

All EUro using the same speakers.

Why did you want to connect your tomtom to your headunit? Just for the mute? If that's the case, i dont think you need to worry about it as tomtom's speaker are pretty loud which in some case I want to lower the volume on tomtom instead of my headunit

The 910 is an awesome piece of kit. One of its features is auto volume control which adjusts according to the ambient noise in the cabin. I have never needed to adjust the volume of mine.

i want it so i can listen music through it too, as well as muting it... but maybe its not worth the effort, and just get the 710?

okay i think ill get the 910, and this adapter : http://www.nexxia.co.uk/Car_kit_installation_leads/honda.htm (the SOT-071)

can someone confirm that that is the appropriate connector for the euro head unit?

thanks
