Looks good, I'm a little confused though.

How is it you have 4 DVD's in there at once? Or is it an external Hard Drive? The second screen plugged right into the HD?

Isn't the rear camera there to line up the ball on the trailer hitch?

edit: N/M the movies are off your Ipod, but is it possibel to hookup an external Hard Drive?

4 DVD's? I'm just using the DVD drive for jpeg right now. U can use an external HD (must be compatible) to view pictures or listen to music, not to play video. Also if u use an ext HD, then the iPod is disable since the ipod cable requires the usb (only 1 usb cable) to be hook up. Rearview camera question went right over my head, not sure what ur trying to ask. The HU has 1 a/v input, 1 a/v output, rear camera cable, 1 usb cable. I still have the PAC to install or sell; just can't figure it out. Anyone in socal wanna do it for $$? I don't wanna go to shop cuz they'll charge an arm n a leg; I just can't figure out which cable to use. I've tried all of them.

Looks good. I believe the Airbag sticker goes behind the bezel though. Is that the Scosche kit?

Yeah, it's a Scosche. Behind? The sticker has only one sticky side and if I place it behind, would the "OFF" be backwards?

wow if only i had the talent...or the $. That looks like a really cool set up ..did you have factory NAV already? ..what did you start with?

P-Dizzle · 05-03-2007, 09:12 PM

Maybe yours was messed up. I just installed a Scosche kit last weekend for a customer. Never Mind. The sticker goes on the bracket. Not the bezel. The sticker mounts to the front of the part that mounts to the bezel before it is screwed on.

Tonka Titan · 05-03-2007, 09:15 PM

I will fix it right away. Now u made look like a dumba$$. Haha, jk.

P-Dizzle · 05-03-2007, 09:18 PM

NO Dude. Install looks good. Just a note for others. Did not mean to pick you out man. How do you like that setup?
