  1. You need to buy a special connector to charge the 3G iPhone, and the newest iPods w/ the D3 there is a post about it in the iPhone/iPod section
  2. enfig car stereo shop specializes in VW/Audi Stereo parts
  3. From what I remember of my install it specifically says to solder the VSS wire. I know where I installed mine (behind instrument cluster) that cutting the VSS wire would cause major problems. Solder is going to work better for you anyways.
  4. 7th Gen is out it is only available in 120 GB.
  5. D-series is discontinued would be my guess why they are focusing on the new models. Just like you wouldn't get updates for Windows 98 anymore
  6. You probably would want to hook the Reverse wire up to a constant 12V source so that you could use the camera even if you are not in reverse
  7. West coast is Zipped and Compressed with free software 7zip
  8. You have a ground loop. I would make sure you have a good solid ground (just because it is metal does not mean that it is a good ground) Make sure yolur ground spot is clean from anything but bare metal (paint, grease, carpet) If that doesn't help I would look at grounding your RCA's it is very easy and cheap. I would also recomend beefing up the big 3 under the hood. The last thing i would say is to use a Ground Loop Isolator but it effects sound quality and is more of a bandaid on gunshot wound.
  9. I prefer DVD -R DL but you have to buy them online most of the time and the D3 (maybe more) prefer the DVD +R DL. I have been having trouble with my -R disc so I switched to Memorex +R and have had no problems. Which is unfortunate because I hate Memorex media.
  10. Depends where you are from. In the US you could say that. In Canada it is not so much unless you are trying to sell it.
  11. no just anti-apple in general. I guess i had more of a question as to weather that was a feature of the new maps or a bug specific to me more then it was me looking for product advice. Can anyone else comment on the question? did they take out the nice disc folder browsing feature or did i have a botched update? Thanks -Matt God forbid anyone answer the question. My guess is that most people have an iPod and therefor do not use their DVD drive for much more then movies and the Nav disc. I know that is the case with me
  12. You need the previous generation (5.5) or older.
  13. Checked it out last night. It is no iPhone but it would be the closest second of all of the ones I have seen. I am thinking about buying one to play round with but I wont ever get rid of my iPhone 3G
