  1. [quote name="tmiles2246"]Thread, I happened upon your post after seeing your pics at the Fredtdi forum. I just received the Z-1, IPOD, bluetooth, Flash circuit, and sirius components and am waiting on the wiring harness and dashkit ([url=http://www.cardomain.com/item/SCOVW2317B]http://www.cardomain.com/item/SCOVW2317B[/url]) for my 06 VW Jetta. Thankyou for the info on the speed pulse wire. Did you need an antenna adaptor for your Z-1 and VW fatory antenna? Do you have a reverse camera, and where did you install it? I plan on doing the install in the next couple days.[/quote] Get this
  2. And it's got boatloads of traction. I like the twisties more than 1/4 miles. But, as much power as I can put into the R a bike would still beat it on a road corse easy. In fact nothing short of a Ariel Atom can give a bike a really good run for the money on a road track.
  3. It'll be plenty quick after I get [url=http://www.streetwerke.com/R32turbo.html][b]this[/b][/url] installed on it. Going to do the GT480 system with a boost controller so I can wind it down for normal driving.
  4. Well, some of you may remember that I installed a Z1 into a 2006 VW GLI: [url=http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1298]http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1298[/url] I sold the car and put the stock radio back in and bought a 2004 R32 in great shape. Of course the Z1 was the first thing I changed in the car. Install was a little different as fat as the speed pulse wire goes. It's a different color but, still behind the insturment cluster. Other than that, everything hooked up the same way. Here's a pic of the final install: [img]http://web.mac.com/cvervais/iWeb/Sit

  6. [quote name="rodriguw"]Thread, Nice write up! One quick question. When you ordered the part "trim ring" from Enfig.com, which one did you order? MK5 Golf/ 2005+ Jetta Radio Dash Kit Dash kit for 2005 Jetta and all MK5 Golf's or Volkswagen - 1K0 857 850 3X1 Factory Aftermarket radio dash kit Thanks,[/quote] Not the VW one.
  7. [quote name="ducatiboy"]So far with the latest design of my circuit, the problems have been been 2 vehicle incompatibilities (06 Jetta GLI with a Dietz Can adapter and a 03 Chevy truck with a remote starter.. I blame those "add ons" for the vehicle incompatibility)[/quote] And I would not disagree with you since the Dietz provides the unit with the constant and the switched. I want to say again I really appreciate your help making your product fully compatiable with my car.
  8. [quote name="tdizzle"]Nice job! I'm looking to install a Z1 in my '06 Jetta. Where did you get the trim ring - Did you purchase from VW, or is this after market? How did you get a good deal from Circuit City? Thanks for the great post.[/quote] I got the trim ring from enfig.com. It comes as a single din with a cubby but you remove the cubby and cut off the bar and you have a double din. Got the good deal by signing up for their credit card, got the discount, then paid it off before 30 days so no interest.
  9. The dash and console in my car is the exact same you'll find in 2005.5+ Jettas/GTIs/GLIs/Rabbits so, if you have one of those this should give you a good idea how it can turn out. I came from a D1 which I was meh about. The eclipse Nav I had in my tC I felt was better less the NavTraffic. What was really bugging me about the D1 was the track ahead and track back "button". It was a pain to get it right when the car was moving. And the iPod controls left a lot to be desired. And being a geek, I have bluetooth everything. Sooooo enter the Z1. I purchased the unit, the new iPod controlle

[quote name="quikdub"]got a buddy who is installing a z1 in a mkV GTI. the dash kit for the z1... is i commercially avail. will my auto guy be able to get one and the harness to allow power after the ignitoin is switched off (with key still inserted) if you can point me in the right direction it would be great. thanks.[/quote] Dash Kit: [url=http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/VW_MK5_DASH_KIT.html]http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_sc/s ... H_KIT.html[/url] The pocket slides out and then cut the bar to make it double din. Antenna Adapter: [url=http://enfigcarstereo.
  12. [quote name="ducatiboy"]Ok, not only do I think I know what's going on, I think I can tweak my software to work with this. Of course your's has the "old" (or curent) software. I'll make some modifications, try it on my truck and send you something to switch it out for. If you don't mind taking your dash out again to put a different circuit in.[/quote] Nah, I can get it apart in under 10 min. And the circuit is easy enough to switch out. I didn't use sauter on it until I was sure everything worked. [quote name="ducatiboy"]That's very weird. You are getting the ILL wire off the little
  13. Oh, and it's in :D [img]http://homepage.mac.com/cvervais/gli/z1/4.jpg[/img] I love how it matches the blurple of the VW and the bluetooth integration rocks and the iPod control is light years ahead of the D1s. [img]http://homepage.mac.com/cvervais/gli/z1/2.jpg[/img]
  14. [quote name="ducatiboy"] You are sure the red wire from my circuit is connected directly to the red wire out of the Z1 right?[/quote] Yep, unless I misinterpreted the diagram it goes something like this. Red wire from car connected to red wire from your circuit and the red wire from the Z1 [quote name="ducatiboy"]Well, you say when you turn the car on and wait, then crank the engine, the flasher doesn't bypass things right?[/quote] Correct. [quote name="ducatiboy"]Does the Z1 reset when you crank over the engine?[/quote] Ye, you got it. [quote name="ducatiboy"]Find out if
  15. I've got a multimeter, what would you like to try? Jus verifying that your circuit sends a flash pulse down the ILL wire to the HU when I go from acc to crank?
