Congrats! I do love the graphite color. I had the same colored coupe for about year. If possible, you should join us at the Tail of the Dragon in April. You'll really appreciate your car after driving some of the roads there.

 

5th Annual Spring 2012 Tail of the Dragon GTG - April 6-8, 2012

 

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! I'm sure I'll get more in tune with the car soon enough and I just may have to take you up on that tail of the dragon invite . I can't wait to learn more from the vast amount of knowledge this forum has to offer! Thanks again!

 

looks good, congrats!

don't forget to add your name to the VA xfire owners group.

Congrats on your purchase. Your case of "permagrin" will set in soon!

 

Thanks and thanks! I just added my name to the VA thread.

 

Haha, I was diagnosed with permagrin the moment I bought the car.

 

Just curious, I remember reading somewhere that the screen on our oem head units can be inverted. Mine currently has a dark screen and light letters / numbers; how can I change it to a light screen with dark letters? I have searched on how to do this but can't seem to find out how.

 

At least on the NAV Unit..

"I have noticed several people mention their radio display was set in the Negative Mode (Dark Background/Light Numbers & Letters). This is an adjustable function. The Navigation User's Manual, page 99, under Display Settings will let you set the mode to Positive, Negative and Automatic (controlled by the headlight switch). I have the auto mode set. This gives you the light background/dark numbers during the day and switches to the dark background/light numbers at night when the headlights are turned on.

To select a setting, request the user menu and press the LCD multifunction key to select the negative, positive, or automatic mode."

 

Thanks! I suppose It's time for me to download the manual.

 

NEVER admit getting the manual ! LOL... We're men.. we don't need no manual!

 

Haha! O, did I say download a manual? I meant download music to listen to while I figure it out for myself.

 

Yeah.. that "spell check - auto correct" has messed up a couple my post too!

 

well, I looked through the manual and found nothing. On page 107 it states that the lcd setting is an option in my car but there is no lcd setting under the options menu on the head unit.

 

there's a different manual for the nav/radio setup. see p. 99

Well, it seems as though I don't have the nav unit in my car. I guess this means I can't change the display.... -_-

 

Guess if I'd have paid attention to your post where you stated "04" I could have saved you the search.. Oh well.. reading is "fundamental" as they say...
