i'm an installer and i live in columbia, md. i have a z1 n have installed many units at my shop. as long as u can fit a double din, have the right kit n harness i'll b willing 2 do it. i have a friend who goes to salisbury university so i can visit her n come 2 u, or u can come to my work. lemme kno if u wanna get it done.

yes, that harness has an illumination wire on the gms-04 side. but on the factory harness, there is no wire on the other side. u hafta run a new illumination wire from the z1 harness to ur parking lights wire. illumination - brown, at the fuse box under the left rear seat, also try lookin under the driver's dash. good luck dude.

cntrylvr is on point, usin the 7551 retains using the factory amp n bose speakers by usin rca outputs. but if u wanted to run the speakers directly off the z1, u do need to rewire the speaker outputs from the factory amp to the z1 wire harness. the 7602 is the right double din dash kit. as far as installation price, it is not going to cost $1300, they're tryin to rip u off. it should be 200 for in-dash nav install, $40 for parts, n 180 IF u decide to get it rewired from the speakers directly to the z1. head up 2 circuit city, they'll get u done right.

try unpluggin the main wire harness (power, acc, ground. etc.) then pluggin it back in. or hold the reset button down for 30 seconds. and make sure in the map menu, that itz on automatic illumination mode instead of day mode.

there's a bandwagon, u should hop on it just like the rest of us. itz awesome dude.

use the search function man. you'll find the answer to bypass it.

speed sense wire should be white/blue. itz behind the instrument cluster, or at the tcm (transmission control module) which is left of the brake pedal. good luck dude.

cool beans.

probably gonna hav updates usin cd-rs like the cddb update. i don't think they're gonna make us buy update dvds, thats just silly. but thats just my guess.

ur welcome.

i got it from circuit city. itz retail at 150 i got it for 105 usin the employee discount. itz definately worth the money n itz very easy 2 install, all u hafta do is mount it n plug it up.

that hole is on most pioneer units. on regular sing-din units, it comes wit this 5 or 6mm bolt that goes for the hole. itz usually meant 4 a ground, if the wire harness doesn't have 1. u could use a backstrap n bolt the z1 down n drill the other side to ur chassis.

every1's invited! i think the club's called avic411.com, awesomeness.

speed sense wire - dark green/ brown, should be at the pcm on the passenger kick panel, in the bottom plug 1 of the z1 plugs have a pink wire that should be hooked up to the vehicle's speed sense wire. i don't really understand ur pac module situation tho.

if u hav a ne pioneer remote, hit the att button or get the cd-sr1 remote 4 the z1 to control bluetooth n voice command keys.

join the club.

itz definately possible to put a z1 in. u just gotta find the right dash kit 4 it. since itz so new, metra, scoshe, n american international probably won't have it 4 another couple months. but u could fabricate a double din kit usin the factory radio. as for the steering wheel controls, u can get the pac swi-ps bypass for pioneer n sony headunits. u can program the bypass 2 w/e buttons u want 2 b used on ur controls.

my install was free, cuz i did it myself so it only took me time. but at my shop the z1 install alone would b 200. bluetooth is 30, back up cam is 50-80 (not sure), n the xm is 80. it does not take 2 days 2 install, itz around 2-3 hours 4 all of that. he's just tryin 2 jiff u or he doesn't know wut he's doin.

[quote name="vegash2"]2 questions...my z1 was manf in june 06. all the installer had to do was put a switch on the parking brake wires. the question i have is everytime i power the unit on, i get a parking brake disclaimer. is that normal on every power up?[/quote] if the parkin brake is engaged while drivin, then yes. to stop this, reset ur z1 by usin the stylus to hit the lil button to the right of the open button. the correct bypass would be to flash ur parkin lights manually on each power up or ducatiboy's circuit. [quote name="vegash2"]also, when i turn my headlights on, the unit

do u have the nissan/ infiniti wire harness? u'll need it 2 hardwire from the factory harness to the z1 harness. metra has the 70-7550 harness for ur car, itz around 20 bux. do u have a good installer? make sure he puts the xm antenna, gps antenna, mic, rear view camera where u want it, n that he programs the pac swi-ps to the buttons u want on ur steering wheel controls. how is going 2 be bypassed? -pre june 06 model: -manually flash ur lights? -use ducatiboy's circuit? -post july 06 model: -ground parkin brake n empty pin? -hook up togg

[quote name="sportsfan21"]ricerocket- Isn't there also a data cable that needs to be attached from the tuner to the Z1 in order for the NavTraffic serivce to work? I don't have the unit, but from what I've heard you need that wire.[/quote] yes, that's the ip bus cable, itz how the z1 controls xm and navtraffic thru that plug. without it, the xm navtraffic would not be an option to choose from.

wires u need for pioneer xm navtraffic tuner: -power (constant 12v, accessory, ground) -ip bus cable (blue side goes to z1, black side goes to tuner as ip bus out) -ip data cable (input goes to z1, output goes to tuner) -antenna (best to be mounted on te trunk or top of windshield) u need all of these 4 xm and navtraffic to work on the z1.

the reverse wire should be green, at the MICU (Multiplex Integrated Control Unit) should be part of the underdash fusebox. it should read 12v wen in reverse gear, test wit a multimeter. good luck man.

speed sense wire - blue/white at the ecm/pcm in a white plug behind the glove box or behind the instrument cluster at the speedometer plug reverse wire - green in the driver's kick panel, in the harness towards the rear

u can tap the illumination wire off the parking lights wire on the car. the parking lights wire 4 ur car is brown and in the driver's kick panel. just extend a line off the pioneer wire harness n run it to the kick panel.
