The navigation system removal and installation process for the Honda Lingpai is as follows: 1. Remove the button panel and air vents on the center console; 2. After removing the panel and disconnecting all wiring, loosen the screws, take out the single-disc CD player, and disconnect its wiring; 3. Use screws and clips to install the new navigation device in the original center console panel position. The Honda Lingpai is a compact sedan under GAC Honda, with dimensions of 4664mm in length, 1750mm in width, and 1505mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2650mm. The vehicle is equipped with features such as an intelligent screen connectivity system, a 7-inch high-definition multi-touch screen, SmartEntry intelligent keyless entry system, one-touch intelligent start system, cruise control system, and a rearview camera system.
I've replaced the navigation system in my Honda Lingpai several times, finding the disassembly and installation process both a test of patience and quite rewarding. The first step is to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent circuit short circuits that could harm both people and the car. Then, carefully pry open the clips of the center console panel using a plastic pry bar—Honda's clips are quite stiff, so apply even force. Next, loosen the screws securing the navigation unit and disconnect the wiring harness. These connectors can be easily confused, so it's best to take photos to record their positions. When installing the new navigation system, ensure compatibility, align the slots properly, and then tighten the screws. Finally, reassemble the panel and test the GPS and Bluetooth functions after powering on. The entire process takes about an hour. It's recommended to have a complete set of tools, including screwdrivers and pry bars, to avoid accidental damage. Every time I finish, I feel like I've saved hundreds in repair costs—totally worth it.
