  1. I just bought a new car, and I'm looking to get another AVIC. Im torn between the Z120 and the X920. I know that the 120 is the top of the line Avic money can buy right now, but the price gap between the 2 is what's making me unable to decide. Should I spend the Extra Money for the 120, or save Money and get the 920. My question is for Z120 owners and Z110 upgraded owners, Aside from the larger screen and the Motorized Flip out, is there really anything else the Z120 has to offer over the X920? I had the F90BT since its release up until last week and didn't mind the smaller staionary screen. Thanks in advance! -CMIYC

  2. I haven't been on for a while and I don't know the situation, but Paypal sent buddy. Hope everything works out and thank you for all your hard work.

     

    Also, if you are going to sell the unit, it better be to buy one of the newer Avics :wink:

  3. Does this "warning" REALLY say anything that 99.999% of thinking adult drivers don't know?

     

    No. It says "we are putting this safety message on our radio so that if you hurt yourself and/or someone else because you weren't paying attention to the road, you can't sue us because we told you so", and people would try to sue. Look at the classic lawsuit against McDonalds. Some dumbass burnt herself with a McD coffee then sued them because their lids didn't say "Caution: Hot". And won IIRC

  4. Hey guys. Listen I hate to do this but I'm gonna have to back out of the round-up. I had to schedule a date for my physical/swear in date for the Army National Guard and the earliest day that was possible for me is the 27th of this month :( so,

  5. The only map difference I see is a different color scheme, maybe a bit more cleaned up. But it doesn't look like a more updated version IMO. Either way I'm more excited to see the new Z-Series. From the homepage picture it looks like they replaced the hard buttons with more flush sleek ones, like on the 4100DVD. I wouldn't be surprised if they added built-in bluetooth to it and a USB/iPod input. A nicer resolution would be nice too :D

     

    From what they are saying (track-up in 2D, road signs), looks like iGO 8.3 to me...

     

    What was the iGo 8.3 pics that were previously posted on this forum then? I think it may have been for the leetlauncher but it had an entirely new interface, looked nothing like the F series nav now.

  7. This has potential, Central Florida sounds good to me. Hopefully, by then I'll be closer to healed and able to tolerate that kind of time in the car.

     

    Damn man, good thing you're in recovery. I had a neighbor who just got killed on his GSX-R. Stupid 17 yr old driver pulled out in front of him and he hit her in the side (collapsed diaphragm was the COD), so glad to hear you made it out.

     

    VBLUE, I asked my girl if she remembers that site, she didn't. But I found this site, http://www.customink.com that is fully customizable. What'cha think? Being that there's only 9 so far (hopefully 10 if GSXR is feeling better) I can ask about some package deal.

    BTW, anyone know the ETA for driving from NY to FL?

  8. VBlue, I'll ask my gf about the shirts. Around xmas time she had Pioneer and JL Audio shirts custom made for me from some website. I'll see if she still remembers the site.

     

    Also I'm probably going to end up driving down, if anyone needs a ride that lives on the way from NY, send me a PM to set up a car pooling thing

    F*cking scumbag. Leet, ya gotta do somethin bout that.

     

    EDITED TO ADD: On second thought, Leet, Leave it be. Think about it..

     

    Everyone here who's shown interest in your launcher knows it's still going through beta testing and is not 100% finished. If he starts selling your Beta as a working software, he's going to get a lot of complaints, and if hes providing the cracked licensing rights for the iGo Tom Tom and Garmin maps, he's going to be in a world of hurt with copyright infringement. Let this asshole get what's coming to him and protect your finished Launcher. Send it through PM's to members upon request, or hey, even sell it. You should get something back for all your hard work.

  10. 1. If the PAC has a blue/white wire on it, CONNECT THEM. If not, there's no need unless you run aftermarket amps.

     

    2. I'm not 100% familiar with the piece itself, but don't bother with the PAC pb wire. If it's what I think it is, that wire is only meant to give you the vehicle's parking brake to connect to the radio's (non bypass method) via CAN-Bus, and if you ground that your brake indicator will always be on. Cut it, tape it, forget about it.

  11. Keep in mind that if you're attempting the bypass, you need to also relocate the yellow/black wire (on connector 1, same as the AV in's and out's) up 1, and over 3 between 2 black wires, and ground that as well.

     

    If you really mean tapping into the vehicle parking brake, then that's not grounding, but the vehicle's wire will be connected to the actual brake itself.

  12. I am curious, the screen on the top is the factory Nav I assume. When you connected the avic d3 did you disconnect or do a by pass on the factory nav? Are you using the top screen only as a screen for the reverse cam?

     

    The screen on the top replaced the info screen, and the info screen replaced a small cubby on the bottom. It really is a sick looking install.
