The only way to keep someone out of you car wuld be to replace the windows with steel, and remove all key cylinders from the car. An alarm is only going to draw attention to a car that's being broken into. So a good installer, and a couple of LOUD sirens are what you need.

......File under "Duhh!" I thought my D3 became invisible again this morning. My remote start turns on the parking lights until you press the brake. The display was dim until I applied the brake then it undimmed.

Ya know, I do that ALL the time, and I've had my avic for a while....

Hey All - So I installed D3 in 2007 F-250. I used the metal mounting brackets off the side of the factory unit. BUT my D3 is a good 1/4 - 1/2 inch outside of dash. I want it to be flush with dash.

is there a cage or installation kit that will set the unit back for me, so it's flush.

 

Could not have installed AVIC without "AVIC411.com" Thanks

The dash kit should have come with 4 1/4" spacers on a plstice tree. If not, pm me I think I have some left over at work.

As stated above it's a tight ass fit, but it does fit.

Test it before you put the car together. Sometimes the orange/white wire will not work on the avic depending on the level your dimmer is at. If it doesn't then there's a green/white wire in the harness that runs to the rear of the car on the driver's side. That's the +parking light wire. That'll work for an illumination tap.

Not really you'd be better off finding a pinhole camera that fit's into the hole.

New body style or old body style. If you don't know, post a pic of the dash. That'll help.

And you get an edited/locked post from your friendly neighborhood mod.

You're better off just wiring the camera to ignition power. If you're intent on wiring a relay off your reverse lights, then here's the RIGHT way to do it in an altima.

30 - to + wire of backup camera

87 - to + 12volts ignition or constant don't matter just has to be capable of supplying enough current to power the camera.

85 - to ground

86 - to reverse wire in car.

Yea it can take anywhere from 2-20 miles to go from initializing to simple or 3d hybrid.

What's stranger is that ANYONE still listens to AM radio....ew....

To verify #3, the rear controls are not supported by any interface I've seen. though I'm sure if you find the right person and heap enough money infront of them they'd find a way to do it.

In some vehicles, there is no VSS wire that the D3 can read, because it is digital.

 

Pretty sad information you're feeding these people. All vehicles have a VSS wire that transmits a Digital DC signal...

 

Whether it be a wheel speed sensor, cam/crank sensor, VSS on the trans it consists of:

 

A reluctor (toothed wheel)

Magnetic Pickup

Coil of wire

 

They're all digital...

 

As for ANALOG signals (TPS, MAP, MAF) most of them need to be converted to Digital DC so the PCM can understand the signal.

When he says "digital" he means they're DATA signals or the vss signal itself is pulsed outside the range the avic can handle (most newer chryslers).

+ 14 cents here for remote start. My opinion's worth more

Maybe he thought he was seeing jesus coming from the glow of his dash at night?

No I'm not, here's pictures of the discs.

I have a question for the pros.... I have an 03 H2, installed the D3, had to use that harness so the chimes/onstar and all that will still work.... part of that harness uses 4 rca plugs, left/right, front/rear.... Anyways, a few things... the volume, even at 40 isnt as loud as it used to be.... Also, certain speakers will come on and off at random times.... It has the bose system, planning on swapping out the bose for new amp/speakers... but i dont know when yet... Any suggestions on why the speakers are coming and going and also about the volume thing? Anyone had experience with the H2's with Bose/Onstar harness and all that...?

Since there's at least 4 different interfaces I know of for that vehicle, what's the model number of the one you used?

There's a thread around here mentioning the exact same problem, and what's causing it. There is currently no fix for it. Has something to do with searching.

They operate totally independent of each other.

Hard coded for region 1 playback only. I haven't heard of anyone modding it to play other region coded discs. So you might want to save your money.

it seems like alot of fords its on the gray/black wire on the radio harness. it was the same wire on my f150, i hope its the same wire on my wifes 07 mustang!

Nope 07 rustang it's some other color at the pcm under the hood. Sorry.

Yeah I got the new 08 maps today..

nice work.
