Pioneer Cam in my Stang. I love the clarity.

 

 

(The halo you see is due to the fact that I mounted the cam inside the trunk keyhole to hide it)

Yea don't listen to the stores. ... I'm sure it's store policy not to tell you about the bypass. (read: Liability)

It can be done with the D2. Trust me 8)

[quote name="Anonymous"]o5silverGT if you are still into making custom backgrounds,can you do anything with an F-250 Super Duty with the Powerstroke Diesel?[/quote]

Sure thing. I just moved across thew country.. but finally all settled in. I'll post up a couple ideas on here.

the ii is the same as the regular one, no change just the cable is one cable that goes to the iPod instead of the 2 it had before.[/quote]

I think you are mistaken. Connectors to the ipod are the same on both. (See links below) Only confirmed differences are the size and color of the unit. Since they are out of stock everywhere no one knows much about the new unit.

...you might be referring to the Pioneer AUX adapter, which I have, that uses two RCA cables inputs. That is not a true ipod adapter.

Anyone tried replacing the wav files you can assign to locations? Just curious... I know you cant substitute them on a neew DVD like the backgrounds. I think you need to have them on the DVD you install with.

Any input?

Did you ground your VSS or did you just not connect it? Also what about the reverse wire?

 

Both are not connected & not grounded.

 

Everything works great. I was going to connect the VSS wire but the NAV seems to track perfect without it. And the Reverse wire... Everytime I start the car the AVIC begins with the full screen reverse view until I switch to nav. So it doesnt bother me that much. I'll connect it when i get a chance.

I also have done the mod on my D1, thing is it works only 85 percent of the time. The other 15 it boots up and all the nav options are greyed out as if the parking brake was down. If you check the system settings it says the parking break is on...why? I have already ripped apart the dash and regrounded my parking brake and my "bypass wire" and they are all fine. I do have the VSS wire hooked up, do you think if I ground it that would help? Also I do not have the reverse wire hooked up, I tried grounding it, but it made no difference weather it was grounded or dangling. Any suggestions would be great, before I go insane, I really want the nav to work all the time as it should...I could care less about video....thanks guys!!!

 

That's weird... 85% I havent noticed any problems yet *knocks on wood* but it's only been less than a week.

 

The parking brake should show ON if it's grounded.

 

I never hooked up my VSS wire.. I wonder if that is causing problems for you.

I performed the lockout bypass on my D2 last night. Worked like a charm.

[quote name="NYRngrs24"]I want to do this too, itd be cool to have a logo spinnign around. I know the basics of flash, and i know 3d programs, I can get teh animation done, i just dont know how to get it into pim format.[/quote]

Same here.. I know some Flash and have created a lot of animated .gif images. But this PIM stuff looks funky. I'm wondering if "animated" just means "color changing" If thats the case then we would be very limited.

[quote name="NYRngrs24"]you dont have any issues with the pim being transparent or anything?[/quote]

Yea... a small portion of the PIM goes transparent to the rearview cam on occasion if you switch from the partial rearview cam mode to AV. But if you revert to the fullscreen map and then return to AV its perfect. Not a big deal to me.

Here's another pic...

That's my handywork. I'll post up the others I made when I get home tonight.

I enjoy messing with Photoshop... any requests out there?
