hello peeps, was wondering if this screen could be made to work in my preface veccy?
no-one seems to know much about them on vec site, just that there meant to be pretty rare as they were a pricey factory upgrade!
this would be a mint upgrade to my veccy, just not sure if possible as been told the screen is driven by the headunit and the double din unit way too big to fit in veccy?

please help, any info realy appreciated, cheers, dave.

The Boy on here has fitted a cid to a single din head unit, ncdc 1100 maybe? Something along those lines anyway. The cid is paired to the head unit via security code so,
1, must be compatible head unit
2, needs to be de paired via tech 2 and re paired to match your head unit idealy. Although i beleive this can be worked around now, but will save alot of agro if your cid is in de paired/delivery mode afaik.

May also depend if your vectra is can bus, but i have no idea what that means!

You may also find a nice admin will move this to the ice section, you'll get better help there. :-)

Yes you can, was an option on some Veccy B's. You'll require an NCDR1100 / 1500 and a CID either paired together or preferably unpaired.

Will also need a session with a genuine Tech II (Not "My Naff Code Reader" as it makes a right hash of it!) to pair if unpaired and set the options (wheel size, HID's, etc)

take it these head units are pretty rare then

I wouldn`t have said rare, but the ones floating about are very sought after and commanding quite a high price.

You'd do better looking for gold hens teeth and rocking horse droppings

Try eGay.de CID's and head units come up quite regularly there

Sounds like you already have the CID, was it depaired before being removed?, If you manage to get a HU to suit, you will also need the Audio Pass for it (unless things have changed?) and the additional RGB cable.

Ah ok, so you must have a NCDC 2013 or 2015, as long as the HU and CID live together you can move them arround, its when you want to part them up that you need to put the CID in delivery mode (depaired) so it can be paired to the new HU, so your need the Audio Pass Card for both old and new HU's in order to do this (unless someones cracked that one?).

I didn't know that the CID worked on the single Din NCDC1100 / 1500, I thought they only worked on a GID, but could be miss informed of that one.

I'm actually the other way round, bought a NCDC2013 and CID some time back from a Vectra C to fit my Mig. Then found out that the Veccy C was CanBus so it was a non starter (so Ive been told).

NCDC for the Mig and Vectra C are the same....the display is a different shape, size and model.

hello again peeps, the single din unit is ncdr 1100/1500 which is one of the either two i am after. dont think the double din unit would even fit in glove box of veccy, to use for info and sat nav!
pitty realy would be a mint upgrade, not sure of cost of genuine tech 2 to get paired up if a get a single din unit to the cid! where theres a will theres a way! didnt even know they had to be paired till a started posting about the up grade, any info much appreciated, breaking the rest of car but but engine and few other parts gone to my veccy, will put it up on this site when a get time in the appropriate place.

cheers dave.

Yup, NCDR1100 or NCDR1500 is whats need to get CID in a Vectra-B.

As of yet, we have no way of getting the pairing code from a 1100 or 1500 head unit, so it would need to come with its pairing code (or depaired already).

For Tech2, see my sig
