Thank you !!
Two minor issues I can live with: (but maybe there's a quick fix?)
1. Power button still does not work
2. When in radio mode, seek button scans the stations instead of the presets.

Radios decide what they do in response to the signals. I know with my pioneer radios, you either choose that the up/down does next/previous tracks for CDs/iPod and tune up (tap) or seeks radio (hold for 1 sec), OR you can program it so it only changes presets up/down and does nothing for CDs/iPod.
Few radios have any on/off feature via wired remotes, I mapped that button to mute on mine.

Hey guys,
Alright, good to know I can map the power button for another feature (i.e. mute), thanks!
Holding the seek button for ~ 1 sec works to switch thru presets, Just gotta time it right so it doesn't shuffle through two or more lol
Thank you Wrathernaut and Urbanengineer for all your help!!
And its a Pioneer AVH-x2600bt @urbanengineer

Hello G35driver, new to Nissan/Infiniti former Subaru owner, anyway I have a bit of confusion with my purchase and I just want to see what I left out. I bought a JVC DD unit, steering interface, and iPod cable as well as the jdm dd dual climate control and jdm non-nav bezel. My question is I have the Bose package but I also have a 15inch single sub and 1000watt amp, what part am I missing to intergrate these parts?

Scosche trim ring to fill the gap above and below the radio.
PAC ROEM-NIS2 to integrate the JVC to the bose amp, which I presume is still powering stock speakers.
If you haven't installed the sub/amp, you'll also need the power cable and RCA cables to run to the trunk.

Just realized that after the install of my DD, my AC buttons are kind of sunk in (the bottom half). Any particular reason why? Quick fix?
There's also a few cm gap between the top of my unit and the trim and I noticed that the installer didn't use the double din trim ring

The gap, easy enough fix but requires removing some of the trim to get it in place. See if the place you paid will do it free, as it should have been done in the install. Otherwise, you can drive a few hours north and I can help you with it.

Awesome thread
I am about to undertake swapping out my stock HU since the CD player has finally died.
Does anyone have any experience with the Pioneer X3500/3600BHS? I am definitely interested in BT, but am not sure if HD radio is really worth that extra money, otherwise I was looking at the x2600BT. I just have the stock speakers and non-Bose, so I'm sure anything will sound better than stock.
Also I am an Android user, so could care less about Apple features :-)
It's sad that I had a tape player in a car from 1988 still work and this one barely made it 8 years.

Buttons sunk in could be the wrong screws were used to put the controls in, or just not tight enough.

Going to be in Savannah sometime next month or so. Will definitely slide by with lunch!
Edit: Yeah, thought about stopping by again, but just didn't like the establishment. A 4 hour is a cake walk if I get to deal with someone as trusted as you.
