Factory dashboard FYI
NOTE, if your car is equipped with an NBT system, then the LVDS behind the original screen is 6 pins. If your car is equipped with a CIC system, then the LVDS plug may be 4-pin or 6-pin. You must remove the original screen to check if it is 4-pin or 6-pin. The products are different, if you choose the wrong LVDS connector style, you will get the wrong product.
