Hey all,

I went through several back pages trying to find an answer and finally just decided to ask so here goes.

I have a new 08 Super Duty being delivered in the next few weeks and have ordered the following:

Avic-Z1

XM radio

Bluetooth connectivity

Backup Camera

10.2 inch rear monitor/DVD Player for the back seat.

TV antanae

The truck has a small audiophile jack (aux port) for playing audio via multiple sources. I did not order the IPOD as I dislike them so I know I won't have on screen control which is fine.

I will be having this proffessionally installed but wanted to ask you guys and maybe you can give me some pointers and directions to give to the installers on what I want. The AVIC will have the 2 wire bybass installed.

If installed correctly can I do all the following:

Watch TV on AVIC and DVD on monitor or vica versa?

Connect MP3 Player to factory input on dash?

Watch DVD that is in rear monitor on AVIC?

Watch 1 DVD on AVIC and another on Monitor (sound would be through wireless headphones for DVD on monitor)

Are there enough inputs selections to accomplish all of this.

What would you suggest I add/delete do differently in this install that would be more beneficial.

I ordered the Z1 online as my local guy could not get one. He will be getting all other accessories for me and installing. Thanks for your help.

Possible, depends on the tv tuner you have.

Connect MP3 Player to factory input on dash?

Take a little creative wiring, but it's entirely possible

Watch DVD that is in rear monitor on AVIC?

Possible

Possible

Yes I beleive there are, depends though on what tv tuner you're getting

as long as he's a competant installer he shouldn't have any problem with wiring up as you're looking to get it wired.
