Recent experiences with Zenec NC2010 ?

it says 43 maps are included, so Australia might be on that list already, and updates are through naviextra's as specified on Zenec's website

There are 43 countries in Europe, so don't expect to have Australian street map data on the unit pre-loaded unless you're getting it through a Zenec reseller in Australia.

i decided to email Zenec Australia a few days ago regarding why they are selling region 2 dvd players in their HU's and why this hasnt been converted to the Australian region 4 code.

I received a response from them this morning saying that region 2 code is a universal code and that the unit will play Australian DVD's no problems.

Are they talking out of their rear end? as its the first i've heard of this (always thought region 0 was universal)

If its true might end up buying from the above UK link.

Let's just say I recently used VCDS to change my RNS510 from Region 2 to Region 4 because some DVDs wouldn't play


Region 2 is the UK. Region 0 is International in the sense of ships and planes travelling between countries, but doesn't mean it's Region Free (iirc).

Sounds like you guys need one of these:

And how's that supposed to fit in my car and provide navigation, or even a radio?

God knows! Looks too complicated to me.

Love when things get lost in translation!

Just noticed that it doesn't actually say Region on that sign, but still don't know why it was posted here

I've found another potential source that seems to ship to Australia, however I'm getting an error when I get to the redirection stage with Paypal. I've placed the details in my earlier post to this thread. If anyone decides to give them a go, could you please let me know if you had issues with the redirect feature after committing to the purchase? I've emailed ACR to ask for their help and will advise if they change their mind about sales to Australia.

I've gone ahead with these guys. Zenec NC2010 and RCE2001B for less than the price of just the head unit from the next cheapest option.

Keep us posted on any updates, including shipping time, navigation, and compatibility issues etc.

what was the response ACR gave you? i had a looksie at their website and the pay via paypal option didnt seem to work for me either.

also i thought the RCE2001B was only compatible with 2009 tiggy's?
