ntm Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Saw it on Ebay avic z150 is available for 999.00. anyone got it yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitman80 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 I've got mine installed. Got it from Abt for $1080. Pretty satisfied so far but going from a factory non-nav to this probably makes it seem better than it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hitman80 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 I have the CD-IH202 iPhone 5 cable (with the Apple cables that are also required) but here is the kicker. The iPhone 5 doesn't work with the z150 yet. You know, the z150 that is "designed for the iPhone 5." It can stream Bluetooth but that's all. I thought I had a bum unit when it wouldn't recognize the iPhone at all. I called Pioneer and their techs informed me that the iPhone 5 firmware update won't be released for another week or two. They were surprised that someone already had a z150. They also said that the firmware update would include upgrading the Bluetooth chip to 1.4, they claimed it shipped with 1.2 (I couldn't believe that part). As soon as they release the firmware update, I'll be able to tell you whether the video works. From what I've read, it should. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ntm Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 BTW did you video bypass? is it the same as the older model AVIC Z series? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitman80 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 The bypass may be as simple as moving a pin in the RCA harness. However, the harness on the 150 has different empty pins than the 140 so I don't want to try it out and damage the radio. From what I've heard from someone who is skilled in bypasses, the 150 does in fact have the bypass pin (same as the 140) albeit in a different location on the harness. Am waiting for him to test his discovery before I try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beefy Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 Got mine and got it wired up and ready to install in the morning... (It's too cold to do a 1am install this time of year... if it were summer, that bad boy would already be in!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
