LivermoreBrian Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 Just had a new Pioneer AVIC-D3 installed in my Black 06 Touareg. Here is the first: And the second: Pioneer AVIC-D3 with iPod Connector, Bluetooth Phone adapter, and PAC-SWIPS steering wheel control interface. All installed using the Metra dash kit. Also, had my installer do the video bypass so video and programmability is available on the fly. So far, I LOVE IT. GPS works great, navigated through Chicago the other night without a problem. As you can see I uploaded some kewl VW graphics I found on avic411.com and really looks factory fit. Bluetooth sounds great, better then my old Motorola headset. No one can tell I'm not on the headset, and very very little background noise. iPod controls are good and sound quality is great. My biggest concern was sound quality. I had the base speaker system, which I thinks sounds pretty damned good. I was truly impressed how good the Pioneer sounds on the stock speakers. Installer put the GPS antenna under the dash compartment, similar to factory placement. I get great satelite signal without having the antenna in plain site! Special thanks to Rich in Wheaton, IL for helping me VAG out the seatbelt chimes. Was so freakin easy, followed the directions on clubtouareg.com and worked like a charm. Hope this encourages other to take the plunge. I am so glad I did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tyson Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 looks good! ot: did i make that background? hahaha! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LivermoreBrian Posted June 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Tyson, you very well could have made that graphic.. I downloaded it off a posting about custom backgrounds. My compliments to whoever put it together. People get in my car and can't believe this isn't a factory stereo, the VW graphics make it blend into the red and blue factory instrumentation.

LivermoreBrian Posted June 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Some have asked for links to the graphics I used. You can do a search on here for backgrounds and there are hundreds. Service rep at the dealer told me these look very similar to the graphics that come with the factory nav. Here are a couple I like for my car: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
