thomashohl Posted December 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 It's not as big as it appears. I just took the pic from an angle to show the knob well. It's the same size as the old one only instead of being 1/8" deep it's more like 5/16". Works awesome for big fingers and feels awesome because of the weight and it's solid stainless.

avic4u Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Thomas: I love it! You did a nice job. Count me in for one. I don't know if another GPS unit has been hacked/modified as much as the F series. If not, I'm pretty sure in on the way to it. As an IT guy, I've been tempted to open my F90BT and see what hardware mods (like overclocking it) can be done. I'm sure as we continue to fiddle with it, people with continue to find more stuff to mod. Marc Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paulc Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I'd be interested in buying a stainless knob. Do you use paypal? I wonder what it would look like made out of bronze (nice gold color)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kmbrun57 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I'll take one for 10.00. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gfedge Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 thomas - I posted on your other thread - missed this one. But I would be interested in buying one of your knobs as well. (That sounds so dirty). Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jml2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I have a f900 I liked it much better after ver2 upgrade boot up I think is very good. Regarding the knob I sent Pioneer an email within the first week of installation to ask them to consider making a replacement or retrofit knob that made sense, they never replied to my request,very poor public relations. I also think that if the flash drive or chip could be replaced or upgraded with a 2,4 or 8 gb size as maybe AVIC4U was mentioning we would have a gem. The only other draw back now besides the knob is the screen size I would like it to be larger, but I can live with that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
