there is the parts for what i put together

this is what i did to install it

i first removed the dash trim and pulled the factory radio from the truck

Then i cut the some plastic out so that the d3 would go in.

then i took the top of the dash off. you will need to remove 7-8 botes and pull off the top of the dash.

then i hooked the wirring up to the harness and hid them behind the dash back in the back of it

now i have not got the blue tooth yet but working on it and i do not have the xm yet but you can look at the other post that i linked at the top to see how to get it set up

but i did put in the older ipod adapter in the same place that the other guy did. now i did make some mods to the little opening where my ipod is so that i can keep my ipod touch there and then keep my 120 gb classic ipod for the video in the glove box as shown and if my wife and i go on a road trip she can hook up to it also.

so yes that means i have two ipods hooked at once to the D3. all you have to do is just use the old ip bus ipod hook up to get the second ipod hooked to the d3 and just use the ipod cable to hook up the first one.

the only thing that you have issuses with is that you have to switch back and forth from each of them on the main menu.

So this has been a fun project and i hope this helps someone out there with there install and if you have any questions just hit me up on here or pm me so that i can help

so this is what it looks like on i love my background.

thanks to all and like in my other post i have the parts for this unit and if any one needs them then let me know to replace the broken parts

looks good

thanks the only thing is tha i had to order a volume knob to complete the look and also the grill asm. so that everything will be perfect. next i will be getting the touch screen replaced. you cant see really the scratch when its on but you can from the first pic.

but thanks for taking a looke

and if any one is wondering why i don't have a knob or about that scrach i am replacing that all so its going to be all good.

Great write-up!

thanks for that and if you want to see how and what i did about the volume knob then look at my other post face lift for the d3

so where did u ground your d 3 to stop the winning??

grounding the RCA's will help out a lot. Especially if you have multiple amps running

well i went to wal mart and bought a scosche car stereo inline nosie suppressor for like 15. and it fixed most of it. but i still hear a little wine in the background but not as bad as i did. i just connects to the rca's and then to the head unit's rca's. so i hope that helps

again grounding the RCAs would help if it is still bothering you

i have tried that and still it keeps that sound around but thanks for the help.
