Evo X How Tos / InstallationsPost or link to your detailed how to / installation articles in here. If you have any questions regarding the how tos, feel free to post them in the Request sub-forum.
i say finale, because although the link suggested that they were successful in installing the FUSE system, it was quite hard to follow and what exactly was involved.
i take no credit in this, if any, its just that i typed it here for all to see in case they would like to add it a later time. imo, it is a nice feature to have. all credit goes to Phantom-Evo-X.
Parts needed :
1. BT module equipped FUSE - Part # 8785A025 Pic 1
2. FUSE Capable head unit from a 2011 up lancer (No Picture here)
3. 2 OEM Female Pins Pic 2
4. C-135 Connector to the BT Pic 3 (Shown with the required extension of 3 wires, gray, purple, and pink)

1. I cut the old BT Connector (Pic 1)
2. Follow color chart (Pdf file)
3. when you have done number 2 it will look something like this Pic 2
4. Pic 3 is my finished product. with shrink tubes.
Note : You will see a red and yellow wire with the red heat shrink tube. this is no longer needed hence i looped them together and put the red heat shrink tube. Pic 2 and 3.
On Pic 2 and 3, you will see 3 wires on the left going down. these are the additional 3 wires that are headed to the main radio sockets. 2 of which will require the OEM Female pin and the 3rd (Pink) wire will need to be tapped to a pre existing wire, Pink as well.

There are 3 main Radio connectors. Pull the smallest of the 3. Pic 1 - You can see at the bottom of this connector that there are 2 empty slots. The 2 OEM female connector goes into these 2 while the 3rd wire (pink) get tapped onto a pre existing pink wire on the same connector. Pic 2
Pic 2 also shows the 3 wires travelling from the BT Module (Passenger side airbag) to the smallest main Radio connector.
Pic 3 shows the 2 OEM Female pins into those empty slots, the gray and black wires.

I have a 2010 SE I believe I have fuse from the factory and I know I have hooked my phone up via Bluetooth in the past.
So if I decided to add a mmcs head unit I could get away with a N04 or a N05?
MMCS doesn't require BT, but as far as I can tell the N04/5 should work. My 2010 MRT has BT but not FUSE, so I have to put this connector on to adapt to the new FUSE BT module I got.
I have a 2010 Evo X SE and I had the Factory head unit with a single disc.
Car has the factory phone controls on the steering wheel and I never had a problem connecting my phone to the car via Bluetooth.
Today I installed a factory N05 head unit. I don't appear to have the option for mobile phone on the screen. I am a bit confused and can't figure out why this could be.
I bought the unit off of eBay and it's in immaculate condition and everything else works flawlessly.
Also the radio still thinks it is in the previous state and not mine. How do I reorient the gps?
Thanks

You need to do this mod first to make that nav work. Bt module of a 2008-2010 are different from 2011 onwards
Can you pls tell me how you bought the pins? It is saying I need to buy 10,000?
I actually called about those items today.
The connector is on back order until July and the pins can be ordered in smaller quantities if you place lp after the description.
If you have any more questions just call them.
