  1. Answering my own question, in case anyone else ever wants to know: iPod, DVD, DivX and external AV (game console, etc.) can be sent to the rear monitor(s) independant of what is on the front monitor. I'm pretty much using excluseivly DivX, so I just leave rear monitor set to "Disc." SD does not display video on the rear screen, and SD is not selectable as a source for the rear monitors.
  2. I just installed a Pyle license plate mount camera, it was about $35. It works pretty well. It's not awesome quality, but more than good enough to use as a backup camera. I installed a $3 10-amp noise filter inline as a precuation against noise too. I used theft-deterrant screws to discourage casual theft (though you'd have to break it to get it completely off the car, even if you defeat the screws, becuase the cables are secured inside the hatch door).
  3. You're probably right, that probably was reference to the RSE and not the sub. As far as my reverse wire issue, I confirmed that my C2R-FRD1 was not sending a reverse signal through its green lead, I tested it with my voltometer and nothing no matter what position the shift lever was in. I guess the CANBUS in my praticular model does not provide reverse information, so the C2R-FRD1 cannot get it. Sooo, I took 10 minutes to read a wiring diagram, found where the reverse light leads come out of the fuse box, tapped into them, confirmed function with my voltometer, and hooked them to the
  4. So directly to the receiver without the special lead that pioneer packaged with the receiver? I'll give it a try. AS far as your sub goes. I read that the ford OEM sub amps use a differential input instead of a +/ground input for the subs. The PAC ground loop isolaters are supposed to correct this problem, you should give it a try, their cheap, like $10-$15.
  5. Did my install over the weekend into a 2006 Freestyle, along with an amplified underseat sub, dual headrest moniros, Sirius, HD Radio, C2R-FRD1 vehcile adapter, SWI_PS interface and MSN Direct ($100 for hardware plus $30 for 2 years of service is not bad). Everything went well, except for the reverse signal. The C2R-FRD1 instructions said the green wire was the reverse signal output, however, the receiver does not see the signal coming from it. Here are my theories on what's wrong: 1. The signal is there, but not in a form the Z110BT can use. 2. The signal is there, but the resitor in
  6. I'm starting my install this weekend (fininshing if all my components arive on time too). Anyway, this is a big question I have. Has anyone confirmed that any or all of these can be done: Listen to iPod/AM/FM/Sirius/XM in front & view DVD in back (think it was confirmed) Listen to AM/FM/Sirius/XM/CD Audio in front & view iPod video in back (think it was confirmed) Listen to iPod/AM/FM/Sirius/XM in front & view Divx from DVD in back Listen to iPod/AM/FM/Sirius/XM in front & view video from SD in back My big concerns are the last 2. I've been converting kids' DVDs
