A quick how-to on adjusting the car type and opening message on the head unit.

this write up is a FAIL so far

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

Thanks I needed that!

I wonder if all the people saying the stereo sounds bad had incorrect car type settings in the unit.

Possibility. I would not have known.

Is it similar for the base (non premium) stereo?

This is actually the base stereo!

this is the base stereo for the FR-S

Thanks for the replies. Seems we might be getting a different base stereo here then:

I'm picking up my car on Saturday, it's a base model trim that comes with the 16s. This was going to be the first thing I was going to donafter getting it home LoL

Interesting.. are the menus in arabic rather than english? perhaps language was an issue in choosing a different manufacturer there. What brand is it?

Thanks! that will help when i get mine.. but will also help me explain it to our customers who pick up their FR-S from us..

Now go throw in an 8 inch bazooka tube and be shocked at how good the stock stereo sounds!

Excited - will be tinkering around with that soon!

I hope not because I don't know the first thing about reading Arabic! loL

I'll have to ask the dealer...looks like a random Toyota branded stereo to me, not the Pioneer the USDM cars get :)

Thank you! The bass doesn't sounds like crap anymore..

thanks again

Oh my awesome. The car setting was set for FR-S, but the sub-woofer wasn't on...HUGE improvement.

Thanks OP.
