All Activity

They have 2 LEDs per strip. One at each end. The length is a plastic diffuser. On AliExpress you can buy some upgrade led units that are also colour changing. They just replace the modules sheet in place and you get an additional switch that fits into a blank position that allows you to cycle colours.

Thanks Chris. You don’t happen to know how to change the interior room strip lighting? Just changed all my map lights for leds. Wanted to change the room lights too. I have the two long strips .

You can diy it. There are some videos on YouTube.

Yes, they can be adjusted slightly (5 levels of activation). I usually do this via 'carscanner' app and a obd2 Bluetooth adaptor.

Hi all. My velfire has auto lights. I’ve noticed that during certain conditions the side lights will turn on without the headlights and then when it’s abit darker they turn on all together. Is this a thing? Can I adjust it? Thanks all

Is this a diy job or do I need to take it to a garage, both sides have now snapped due to corrosion

Car is due an mot and just noticed the strap across buckle isnt working on the middle seats. Are replacements standard and are they easy enough replaced

Used Tein suspension for 20 series No leaks. Removed from genuine 40,000 mile example. Estimated use of this system 20,000 miles £250 Ono - collection Kent (That price wouldn’t cover the shipping of a new set from Japan).

This can be a problem with cheaper most adaptors. This brand retains fader and balance. Most adaptor

Bought a fabulous cover for my Alfie! Maypole breathable. Easy to put on and covers her entirely. Highly recommend

There is a bed you can buy that fits over the front seats of a VW van and I wonder if anyone knows if it fits in an Alphard? Thank you, Eleanor

Because with the most box you dont have control over balance and fade. You also cant utilize the surround system. Youd have to get an entirely new amp and rewire all of the channels to do so or just keep the stock head unit

I can sort of see as a stop gap to gain car play or android auto, but I definitely want to see if the other speakers and oem subwoofer sounds any good. Right now I just need to check out what was done to see if a better implementation can be made.

Just took front door panel off and got a nice surprise, Alpine 6.5 fitted (FT17S) with the tweeters in the dash so don’t think I’ll bother changing.

Not sure what possesses some of the previous owners to bypass the 640w amplifier and amplifier subwoofer (unless they have blown them). They usually downgrade with a 4x50w headunit.

As for parts try amayama.com and put the vehicle details in. Find the part to get the number and then try ebay and other sites to see who else offers them.

Good morning all, I have a working reversing camera but it doesn't give a particularly wide view so I have been looking at others. The one that I have that works is this one (170° Car Front/Rear View Reverse Parking Camera Waterproof Night Vision Camera): I have tried two other ones, this (720P AHD Vehicle Rear View Reverse Camera 170 Degree Lens Night Vision Parking Assistance Camera CVBS Rear Camera HD Color Image): and (AHD 1080P Reversing Camera, Rear View Camera 360° Rotatable Metal Housing Universal Reverse Camera for Car 170° Wide Angle IP69K Waterproof Night Vision): I went for those as the video connector was the same (or close enough for the last one) so I expected the video to work but neither of these do, while the first one works fine. The ends in the car are these: The head unit is rather old by the looks of it: and the back of it has the expected tangle of wires: So this has more to do with video output types than anything else - is 'AHD' a new format that uses the same physical connectors or something? Can anyone tell me what camera features I should be looking for, or maybe the head unit replacement journey is about to happen? Any thoughts, cheers. Paul

I’ll take a more in depth look at the plugs this weekend when I have some time, in the meantime I just did a Quick Look under the seats to make sure everything seems to be there. Just looks like plugs have been unplugged from the Panasonic. Also included a single picture from behind the current android head unit. Under the drivers seat is the subwoofer. No idea if that’s powered on. Under the passenger seat. Behind head unit. I’ll need to reach in an see what connectors are in there.

Thanks Myron, Much Appreciated, Regards Clive.

I found this YouTube video extremely useful when stripping the door out to replace a wing mirror. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDOdRlDS9bI

Hi from a new member and 1st time Alphard owner in Camberley, Surrey.

Thankfully they restocked at Silkblaze I ordered another 8 sets. 2 arrived today test Monday. 2 day shipping from Japan via FedEx Example I genuinely think they are the best option for any series Vellfire / Alpahrd
