I have a 2004 Expedition Eddie Bauer with the OEM DVD system in the rear. I was wanting to know if the D3 will work in this truck? The dvd player uses the radio to control volume.

Crutchfield sells one but its 50 feet long...

I used a Memorex DVD DL and got mine to work. It took like 500 times of trying but it started working...

Does anyone know if anyone makes a wire that I can plug into my GPS Antenna so I can add feet to the wire? I'm like 1 foot to short from plugging into my unit.

So I downloaded the 2008 update disk for my D3. So I burned it at 1x and my pc said it was done right. So I go out to my truck and put the disk in and the D3 comes up saying its updating do not turn te unit off. So I was like sweet! Then it tells me its done and then comes up asking me to eject the disk and put the right one in. So I did the eject and stuck the cd vack in and now it keeps telling me that....

Well that didnt do any good. It's still poping just like it did before.

What's the best way to wire this is? Like what should I use that'll hold it really good?

Thanks!

I put my D3 in my new 08 FX4 and it has the factory amp and sub so I bought the harness from crutchfeild so the D3 can run the amp and sub but now when I turn the truck on a loud pop comes from the sub... What is this?!?! It scares the crap out of me late at night when I'm half asleep. haha

It's your Sirius Box. Mine did that. But it was doing it right out of the box. Not 6 months later. I went through 3 units before I got one that worked.

Anyone?

Whats the best mounting kit for a 2008 Ford F-150? The one from Crutchfeild didn't fit my truck.

Does anyone know of a good sub box that will fit under the back seat of a 2008 Ford F-150 Super Crew? I have a 10inc JL Audio Sub I'd like to keep. But my old box won't fit now.

I was wanting to know if I could plug my D3 into my laptop so my weather tracking software could track me on that map?

I live mine the way it is, if it gets jacked I get a new one for free anyways!

Drop by the store and talk to the installers and ask questions(lots). You can tell by talking to an installer if they know their stuff. And don't let them tell you that "yeah I can install alarms, I'm MECP certified", cause that don't mean shit. The bay I work at, both my install sup and I have over 15 years of experience each, so we know what we're doing. Its all these kids without experience that they hire at other stores thinking they can install anything that give us a bad name. We do alot of repairs for our neighboring Best Buy stores. Most of the problems come from bad installs, and one of the biggest problems we see is solder not being used. So make sure they use solder. So my advice would be to get to know your installer before he works on your car. And if you live anywhere close to Plano, Tx, drop by our bay. I'd be happy to install an alarm on your vehicle.

I live in Huntsville, AL! haha, no where close to you!

There's prolly isn't any installers on here close to Huntsville either is it?

Well I called around all morning and found a installer who would do a viper install!

They've been in town for like 40 years... So they should know where they are doing.

How good is BestBuy at installing car alarms? I'm looking at getting a viper but I can't find anyone in town who installs vipers besides BestBuy.

Is there anything I can use to be able to only have 1 Antenna? So that the SIRIUS and GPS run off 1 Antenna.

Take it back, they messed it up.
