2 din radio in Kalina 1 with your own hands

September 25, 2019 Lada.Online 41 859 9

Cars of the Lada Kalina family in the Luxe configuration have a center console with a visor, which allows you to place a multimedia system. Currently, this console is not produced by the factory, but you can install it yourself on the Lada Kalina in the “Standard” or “Norma” configuration, as well as on the new Lada Granta FL family.

The modification process depends on which instrument panel (dashboard) is installed on your car.

A few words about the radio of the “normal Kalina-2”

When looking at the “device”, which AvtoVAZ designates with the numbers 2190-7900010-40, it immediately becomes clear that installing such a device in a standard 1DIN compartment will not work.
VAZ cars in the “Norma” configuration come from the factory with an empty compartment (its height is 1DIN), and in the “Norma+” radio tape recorder occupies the entire central part of the console. That is, the owner has the following choice: you can install a standard VAZ radio, but then the easy-to-use shelf will disappear, or you can look for and install a unit of standard height. The VAZ radio does not fit into the 1DIN high compartment. There is no touch screen on it, but under the “twist” there is a whole array of plastic buttons. VAZ push-button radio for Kalina-2

Such a radio, as we see in the photo, can be found in the only configuration of the Kalina Cross. The “device” in question differs from the Granta radio in the presence of a frame with holes. There were rumors about the release of specific units intended only for crossovers, but in the end everything turned out to be simpler - VAZ always ordered radio tape recorders from Itelma, and this tradition was continued. What exactly is offered as part of the “budget” head unit? Let's try to figure it out.

Torpedo Kalina or Granta FL

The following are instructions for cars with such a dashboard:

  • instrument panel trim (21925-5325182)
  • central air ducts (or intermediate air duct housing for the monitor for Lada Kalina 2) (2195-8104209/08)
  • solar radiation sensor (21920-8121300)
  • multimedia display (article 21920-7900100, make sure you have an interface cable)
  • multimedia equipment (21920-7900200 or navigation 21920-7900300)
  1. Remove the instrument cluster, glove compartment, center trim and air ducts (move back a couple of fasteners from above).
  2. Install the air ducts, modifying the fastenings in place (for example, use furniture corners).

As a result, the air ducts should go down a little:

  1. Install the screen and multimedia system on standard mounts.
  2. Connect the display to the multimedia unit.
  3. Attach the solar radiation sensor to the frame.
  4. Install the center console.

Advice for future and current owners of VAZ push-button radios

The release of standard VAZ “devices”, devoid of an expensive “sensor”, has been expected for a long time. Back in the first half of the year, we were told that such a unit should appear in the fall. As you can see, VAZ was embarrassed to build a graphic display into the radio, and all information on the screen is displayed in standard symbols. The only available backlight color is emerald (there will be more of these colors in crossovers). The device is a “turn on and listen” device, and in standby mode the display displays the time.

The fact that the manufacturer placed the USB port right on the face of the radio is not bad. Now owners have the opportunity to quickly connect a USB drive, or use the standard port as a power source. It will be easy to connect a smartphone or tablet and place it on the dashboard. This is cool! It is recommended to immediately install a short USB flash drive into the USB port to protect it from dust. And it’s also advisable to occupy the port intended for SD cards with something.

All radios produced by Itelma LLC are well aware of a file system such as FAT32. This means that you need to format flash drives in it, onto which audio files in MP3 and WAV format will then be recorded. The signal to the speakers standardly installed in the doors comes without distortion, and the power of the built-in amplifiers is unlikely to seem insufficient to anyone. Enjoy it for your health.

A device called 7900010-40 in the interior of Kalina-2

We can state the fact that the new head unit developed by AvtoVAZ turned out to be more than twice cheaper than the touch media center. So, there is no need to succumb to the persuasion of sellers to buy a 7900010-40 radio for 10, 8 or 6 thousand rubles. However, we will leave the choice to the owner.

How to remove the center console in a luxury package

Let's say it was decided to dismantle the panels located on the center console. You can see that there are two of them. One is the front panel of the air conditioner, the second protects the radio and contains air duct grilles in its design. These two parts are not connected to each other. However, it will not be possible to remove the radio panel unless you first remove the climate control panel. Below it are metric screws (A, B) that secure the media center shield from below.

The question arises, why are we even talking about how to dismantle the center console, since after this the car can be removed from warranty? Usually the shield is removed to install additional equipment (for example, a rear view camera). But connecting any equipment, the use of which has not been agreed upon with the dealer, will void the vehicle warranty. If you haven't changed your mind yet, continue reading.
