I would think you'd stand out more- by setting off everybody else's detectors, and then they'd slow down and move over a lane or two.

OH! It does seem the Trimble has a longer cord... If that's so, then what do you get when you buy Microsoft Maps and Streets for your notebook? Does it plug into a card, or does the antenna have a USB connector or something?

Hmfph. I've used an old sock turned inside out. Spray some Windex on it (teh sock, not the Z1) and wipe gently. Good as new! :D

Yeah man, it's not really all that hard. Will you need your truck every day? If so, you may have to put up with a big hole in your dash for a while. Do the pigtails, then put the Z1 in last; don't stuff it in then yank it out 20 times just to check something- wouldn't want to damage that screen or something. You have a popular truck; I put mine in an 03 Kia Sorento. The speakers and amps took longer than the Z1 install!

I have heard some talk about the end connector of the Pioneer GPS antenna. I've never seen one like it before. I think I can see how it's put together, has anybody replaced the end connector? How hard was it? Where did you get the piece? The reason I'm asking is that I got a little GPS antenna at a flea market- it's a Trimble 40767-40, and I paid 2 dollars for it, still in the wrapper. It has a tiny coax screw-in connector. I was thinking I could put a Pioneer end on it and have a spare.

Well, if it's defective, it's still 99.9% effective, in my opinion. I have though about the cable, I'll hop over to Ebay and see if I can dig one up. But why would others have the same problem? Is it just the 920's that have this issue? What about people with 910's? What do they see?

Anybody playing Gears of War? I'm waiting for a Halo 3 edition before I get my 360. Anybody down with a PS3 yet? I'm still working through Half-Life 2 for my Xbox!!!

Go lo-tech: Dirty car & plates, dark red and a bra. Or is that not effective anymore? I have seen license plate covers that are supposed to work well, anybody got evidence for/ against?

On XM I'm down with ch. 82 most of the time. If I have my Zen running, it's KMFDM or Rob Zombie. My movie (still) is Pvt. Ryan, but my family took a trip, and my wife watched a lot of her Gillmore Girls :x but I was cool when the kids watched Ice Age and Monster House.

Tune to channel 000, and you'll get the ID.

I put mine just above the windshield corner, and ran the little wire along/under the rubber trim. Then it goes along inbetween the fender and the door, and makes a break in the door wiring harness rubber boot thing, and in up/ under/ beside the dash. Plenty of cord that way!

Yes- a couple of times.

Done. No change... I guess the antenna works; I get music.

I guess this like the others; my XM works fine, I can hop channels and get my radio ID off channel 000. I'm almost POSITIVE it was working on the bench a few days ago- I checked it out before I took everything apart to install, and wrote my radio ID on a little piece of paper. I've got the black /black /out on my 920 (not the traffic unit) to blue/blue/in in on my Z1 (Aug 06). There is another, bigger plug-in on the back; manual says that's for TV tuner in, so I'm not messing with it.

Yeah, I bought from this shop. I'm not an employee, but I really can't say anything bad about them. I paid like 1800 total. When they first hooked me, it was for 1399, and the unit didn't have any wiring. WHATEVAH! For 100 bucks more, I got the wiring. They specificaly told me that they can't sell the unit for less than xxx, so they sell added warranties to make up the difference. So I got that too. The details aren't bad, really. My box came in two days from NYC to Va. Beach. Was it "factory sealed" ? No. Not like an Alpine box, or a box from Crutchfield that has printing on the t
