Once the vehicle is moving and road noise comes into play, the sound quality differences are all but irrelevant. There's just no way I could live with that delay to inputs from the Sony.

Time adjustments would be nice, but with only the front soundstage setup I run, it probably wouldn't make a noticeable difference.

 

i see alot of guys running with the Metra double din kit.... my question is does anybody else have an issue with the a/c switching over to "Auto" on it's own..... mine does that a few times throughout the day and i have to switch it back to manual and recycle the cold air instead of pulling the outside air in through the vents............ any ideas on what this could be

Thanks in advance

 

me gusta!

 

So if I want a aftermarket radio I have to purchase the double din kit??? I can't use the face tht it's on the car now or everything it's attach to the radio ???

 

Yes, you need the DD kit for a number of reasons.

 

This is sticky'd at the top of this forum for a reason:

I had my DD installed with the dual ac modded.

Here is a pic of it with the Pioneer 2400BT installed:

 

Top Teke - did you have any problems with the HCE 104 Alpine install? I have a black screen saying image may be reversed...

 

No problems, but if it says your image is reversed you can just change the polarity and it should go back to normal.

 

Clean... Looks my old coupe

 

Here the finished product on mine. Everything works flawlessly.

Thank you Wrathernaut for your help

 

anybody know where i can get the trim piece bezel? the outer piece that goes around the DD. I got a 7inch kenwood with the metra dash kit.

 

Look at the shopping list stuck at the top of this forum - https://g35driver.com/forums/audio-v...urce-list.html

You want the universal trim ring from that list.

 

This is my non DVD receiver. Didn't want to get DVD receiver in fear of car getting broken into. Wanted something not too showy but still lots of features Bluetooth hands free calling, Siri integration for iPhones and a USB port in the front. This radio takes care of that and more. I'm running the metro dash kit. Didn't do enough research and found out about the Jdm one after, but hey crutchfield offers 50% off with purchase of radio and I had a 25 dollar off coupon. So I got the metra dash kit for 75 bucks brand new I think that was a good deal.

 

Looks good Coop, congrats.
