NISSAN MAXIMA A35 · UPGRADE & INSTALLATION GUIDE

Nissan Maxima A35 Android Screen Upgrade Guide

The Nissan Maxima A35 uses several factory dashboard and audio configurations. This guide helps you identify your original setup, choose the correct Android screen style and follow the appropriate installation path.

STEP 1

Identify Your Factory Dashboard & Audio Configuration

Start by comparing your original dashboard with the reference below. The wiring method depends on the factory head unit and audio system.

Nissan Maxima A35 Base Trim and BOSE dashboard comparison
BASE TRIM

Base / Low Configuration

Commonly uses a simpler factory display and control layout. This version follows the Base Trim wiring path.

BOSE SYSTEM

Mid / High Configuration

Commonly includes factory BOSE audio and may use a factory navigation display or controller. Several head unit types exist.

DIFFERENT CONFIGURATION

Dashboard Does Not Match?

If your original dashboard looks different from the common configurations shown here, send us a photo before installation so we can verify the correct wiring setup.

STEP 2

Choose Your Android Screen Style

Two common upgrade styles are available for the Nissan Maxima A35. The installation method depends on both the screen style and the original vehicle configuration.

ORIGINAL-STYLE

Factory-Style Android Screen

Designed to integrate with the original dashboard layout for a more factory-style appearance.

TESLA-STYLE

Vertical Android Screen

Uses a larger vertical touchscreen and changes more of the center-stack appearance.

STEP 3

Understand the Installation Logic

The most important difference is how the new Android system interfaces with the original head unit and factory audio system.

BASE TRIM

Original Factory Head Unit Is Retained

On the Base Trim installation path, the original factory head unit remains part of the system.

Audio path:
Android screen → AUX audio connection → factory radio/audio system
BOSE SYSTEM

Factory Head Unit Is Replaced

On the BOSE installation path, the Android system replaces the original head unit and uses the matched BOSE-compatible wiring configuration.

Audio path:
Android system → matched factory audio / BOSE amplifier interface
Why this matters: A Base Trim wiring guide should not be used for a BOSE head unit configuration, and the BOSE Type 1 / Type 2 / Type 3 guides should be matched to the corresponding original head unit.
STEP 4

Choose the Correct Installation Guide

Use the installation overview below to match your factory trim, head unit type and Android screen configuration.
