forgot to mention, there is an ipod cable in the cubby above the head unit which not only charges your ipod but will play music from it.

also, f1 did a great job of hiding the gps antenna... can't see it anywhere... it's not on the dash like i've seen on some installs.. its completely hidden

the avic-z3 is $1268 on amazon right now... the double din kit - finisher/ac controller was $285.. installation depends on what all you have them do, for example rear camera, ipod adapter, bluetooth, tv tuner, xm/sirius, etc...

it's so worth it... like i said i really wish i didn't wait 2.5 years to do this!

So you just brought in all the parts and have them install it?
Did they already knew exactly how to do the drive & play-dvd hack, or did you had to bring in some sort of DIY write-up? Is the DD kit that complete JDM kit (w/ the dual climate buttons) from Riverside Infiniti? Also what about the steering wheel buttons, they work?
