3.2 Physical Installation
The S8G2114PM utilizes an IAH10D style (Integrated and Adaptive Head-unit of 10.1-inch Display) for installation. This often requires a vehicle-specific installation dash kit (wiring harness, data interface, mounting kit) from YO-FUNG for an OEM factory-style fit. Ensure your vehicle's dashboard opening is compatible. For some vehicles, the 10.1-inch display may partially obstruct air vents or controls.
