Thumbs up Another AVIC-Z1 installed pics

Finnally got around to taking some pics this morning:


Drivers view on NAVI (blurred out some things for security reasons )


MP3 menu and you can see the finishing bracket thing that took about 20 minutes to sand down


Looks flush from my POV and passengers although the bottom buttons stick out a bit




Voice recognition mic, put it there for now, works great with the windows up but I'm guessing it won't work to well when the windows are down.






Total install time: About 2.5-3 hours
Hardest part: Soldering the damn dual climate button on
Easiest part: Pulling off all the panels
Coolest feature so far: HDD Library
Next step: Ducatiboys circuit (unlocks the device), Amp and maybe some kick panels with some nice speakers, IPOD interface

I will take some night time pics tonight and post them up as well. I'll try to get a picture of a DVD playing, CD playing, better NAV shots, etc...

I really like the AVICs ... they are real clean and its almost OEM looking.
Great job.

Awesome Install!!

I gotta ask something tho and hope you have the answers..

I know I need a DD kit and the ac controller but is there anything else I need to get??? Harness??

I would like to do Sirius as my Sat so is this ok?? Do I need to get any other Sat. stuff or just call them and subscribe??

I appreciate any responses!

What I ordered:

1. Double Din Finisher
2. AC Controller
3. If you have the Bose system you can use a wiring harness that just connects via RCA's, not sure of the model as it way supplied with the Navi but I will look it up when I get home

If its an 04 coupe you do not need the additional bracket for the Z1, everything fit in place.

I had Sirius on my old Alpine unit, just get the Pioneer-Sirius thing, hook it up in the back of the unit, power it and ground it, call them up and subscribe. From what I've seen the UI for the Sirius and XM looks awesome.
