Well I replaced my N2 with the D3 on Friday, love the IPOD controls, XM display and the color options otherwise most features are generally the same. Still tweaking out on it though!

 

I do have one question, with the N2 the external montors would display the NAV screen (and some menus) this HU only will display DVD video and IPOD video only. Otherwise it says "no input" BTW the upper screen shown has a direct hookup to the rear view camera with an RCA switch.

Any thoughts/insight would be appreciated!!

Your maxima has a lot of technology in it 8)...

 

D3 is cheap like that and won't display navi at the top :(

 

What I think you should do is go with a Z1/2 to give you the options of the D3 plus some more... Navi @ that level and position can get annoying to me, much easier to have it elevated at eye/road level. And the buttons are blue so itll match your dash too.

 

But that's up to you as long as you enjoy the unit now :)

That sucks, I didn't even think this would be a problem, bastards!

As fro switching now, I'm pretty much in the D3 and that's where I'll stay, for now...plus the IPOD controls make it all worth it for me!!

Hey man, I just got a 05 Max SL. I ordered the aftermarket dash kit with steering wheel adapter for it. Did you custom make the d3 fit into the dash kit? and was mounting the 7" hard?

 

Thanks!

It's mounted under the rear bumper, seems like it would be too low but it actually a great angle... (sorry haven't been on in awhile!)
