Ok so you do have to buy the one with the AC controls (so why the hell do they sell it without them... Whatever) anyways... So for the 4400 all I gotta but is the Jdm DD and parking bypass? Then I will be good to install?

 

The DD kit only exists because in Japan the Nissan Skyline it's actually a part that one might need to replace - just like the AC controls or any other piece of dash trim. We're more or less just lucky that this is even the case, otherwise we'd be stuck with the Metra kit.

You will need:
JDM DD w/Dual zone depending on year/trim
Parking bypass (optional right)
PAC-SWI or Metra Axxess SWC depending on year/trim
PAC-ROEM-Nix if you want to continue using factory Bose amp
Misc. coneectors and crimping tools, heat shrink tube, etc. depending on how you like to setup. Definitely suggest additional 12 or 16ga line for extending some of the leads. i.e. remote turn on is only like 3" long, also can use for ground, etc. Get more than just blue for easy reference.
Read through Wrathernaut's list to double check me.

 

I have a 2003 coupe, i got the pioneer avh 4400

 

Got my din today.

 

Yeaaaah buddy. GL w/ the install!

 

Looks good. Did they come out witj the 2012 model?

 

yea.... so... how exactly do you do that?

 

Read Wrathernaut's Shopping and Resource List and any other links that seem pertinent.

- Remove old HU
- Connect components
- SWI or SWC, ROEM, parking brake override, cell phone microphone etc.
- Install new HU
- Replace trim

That's probably the order that I'd do it in.

 

Hey anyone have the link to the thread of how to cut the ac control green thing so u can isolate the ac from radio stuff? i cant find it

 

Are you referring to this?

I wouldn't recommend it...just bite the bullet, and go buy a dd kit man.

 

what he is reffering to is gaining his dual AC control on his JDM DD kit.

 

If you don't already have dual zone ac feature you can't add it. If you already have it you need to purchase a dual zone ac control along with the JDM DD - or get the scummy Metra kit.
