What a shame. Bought the 80G today and yes the video does not work. Does the old 30G work? I probably return and get 30G or the new 16G nano.

I have D3 in my mazda3. From the mazda3 forum, I learned that the new classic ipod won't be able to play video on the D3 anymore. This is the classic 80G/160G which replace the old 30G/80G. Anybody here know anything or confirm this? Gosh, I got the ipod adapter for my D3 but I haven't bought the ipod yet. I keep checking the price for 30G video ipod and now they don't make it anymore. I don't want to buy the new 80G (eventhough same price) if I cannot play video on D3.

D3 does have hard-drive. It's 10G to store misc things (phone books, favorite addresses, settings, ...) However, it is dvd-based nav, not HDD-based nav.

I don't know if the capacity of ipod has anything to do with it, but I don't think so. I have 30G and I don't have any problem you described.

Consider this thread closed! After testing all of them I finally find the one. Yeah!!! I don't have to wire it all the way to the back and up the hatch which is a pain in the butt.

I finally dig among 100 wires and see about 3-4 green/black. I don't know which one is which ??? There is one coming off PJB to A pillar and about 2-3 coming off PJB to the lower side of passenger side.

Yep! that exactly I was looking. All wires from engine compartment goes through firewall and come to this panel. But I couldn't find it here. Cannot find green/black stripe wire there. Could be another color?

You mean the passenger scuff plate? That is the plastic piece along the passenger door. I removed that before to run the wire for backup camera. There is no wire there. I install amp and there is no wire under carpet. I may not say it clear but when I say glove box I meant: remove glove box and right below it you see the fuse box. All wires will come from firewall and end up here. I check for J05 which is on the back side of fuse box and look for wire green/black. It's not there.

Thanks, consultadrone The green/orange stripe is on the left grommet on top of hatch and green/black stripe is on the right grommet on top of hatch. Unfortunately they somehow merge into one wire somewhere and there is no green/orange or green/black stripe there under glove box!!! Do you have a pic of the wire under glove box by any chance? or its exactly location? or any clue to look for it? I try really hard and don't see it. I guess it comes out of PJB J05 but don't see wire with matching color (green/black)

I need to tap into reverse gear signal for 07 mazda3 hatchback. Please help. There is one all the way at the back on the top hatch. It is very difficult to wire it there. I believe the wire will start up front from glove box and run all the way back there. But I don't know what wire up front to tap. Please help
