Puddle Pirate

In just the last several days, I had my old D2 system replaced with the X940bt. I have followed the instructions on Page 196 of the manual to set a password. No luck. The instructions say to go the Settings Menu and touch Area 1, then, Area 2, then touch and hold Area 3. I get nothing! My system was installed by a professional at a competent shop. I was however, able to resize my D2 splash screen and install it. So, at least I got half of it done. Other then returning everything to the factory settings, is there another way to access this?

Thanks guys. I think I can work with the diagram above as I have enough room behind the unit and on top. I use it for more then radio and navigation. It is also the primary player for the TV in the midwall (the TV is not above the driver in mine). The D-3 is already installed and works great. Just want a better viewing angle for navigation. Otherwise - it's perfect!

I have a D-3 installed in my motor coach. It works very well overall. One thing I would like to do is be able to angle the bracket so that the unit points up just a bit - from the flat install it has now. Reason? It sits lower in the console and I need to look down at it. At it's current angle, it is not as clear a picture as looking straight at it. The picture below will give you an idea. Thanks

I have an 07 Ford Ranger that I put a D-2 in. The D-3 is the same size (double din) so don't worry about it. Liked the D-2 so much, I put a D-3 in my Dog House! Dog House = 07 Holiday Rambler Ambassador motor coach.

Works pretty well for me - for the DVD functions. Since I use it as the primary DVD player in my Puddle Pirate Dog House.

I got mine from Crutchfield. I checked UPS yesterday after getting home from work. It said "Out for Delivery". At just before 4:00 pm, I checked again and it said "Delivered at 3:30 pm, - Front Door" Since I was home at the time, I knew UPS had not been there. After trying to get ahold of some Yahoo from UPS, (they were not helpful), I was told to call Crutchfield. They were very nice and said they would ship me a new one just as soon as they had them back in stock at no cost. Well, at 6:15, the wife comes home and says "The UPS guy just handed this to me". I called

Nope!!! Never had the issue with the D-2. Guess when it was installed, they did that for me. Thanks. I will try it.

I finally got my D-3 installed (with bypass) on my motor coach. Works good, although, I see that when you turn, the map does not rotate as it does on my D-2 (or is there a setting I've not adjusted?) Works good! Couple pics.

Thanks there TJ! Looks Great!!!! Gonna load it.

Works for me!!! Thanks. I will use the SR1 until they have a steering wheel remote that works. Basic use of the radio/and I-Pod is what I need it for anyway. To far to stretch from the drivers seat to operate the radio -- and do it without running over things like ----- BMWs and Hondas!

I am wondering if any of our installers on this board have tried the CD-SR1 or 11 with any of the D3s that have been installed. Sometimes the CRs are just reading from a script and it may be that the SR1 or 11 are not listed as compatible with the D3. Won't be the first time that CRs don't know what is what. Since neither of the two CRs ever answered my question to them about the D3 and the SR1 or 11 - I'm wondering. If you guys get a chance, would you be able to check on your next installs? Thanks

Would very much appreciate one of you fine folks putting this one together for my D-3. [img]http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b88/PuddlePirate/NavigationAmbassador.jpg[/img] Under the Coach, please put: REID FAMILY DOG HOUSE NAVIGATION LOADING..... Dark Green print would be nice Thanks

Thanks. My book is still sealed in the carton. Can't open it till I get it installed - Just in case there is a problem with the unit and it needs to be returned.

What size does your pics need to be for custom background on the D-3? Is it the same as D-2?

I always buck the odds......Sometimes you get lucky!
