I am planning on getting this setup for my G but I need to find: PAC Audio PAI NIS.. god of cpu said that people on the boards sell such a thing for $90? So I guess who ever does please respond to my thread. Thanks!

 

Hey man, just search google and you will find a lot of companies that sell it. As for the Digital Wheelz screen you will love how it looks in your car. It really does look like it is factory and meant to be their.

Does Anybody Know How The Immitation Xenarc Touch Screen By Dynamix Will Fit In The Nav. Cubby? Im Wondering If Anyone Has Fitted It In Yet. Id Like To Save An Extra Hundred Buck Or So On The Non Name Brand!

 

Everything I've heard is that the Xenarc touchscreen is one of the best ones you can get if not the best. I really wouldn't try and skimp on the screen. After all, thats probably the most important part of the setup and you'll be looking at it all the time. The Xenarc has great quality colors and will last you longer than most screens (i.e. I've heard lots of problems with the Lilliput)

 

If your considering this for this with the DigitalWheelz screen housing, it won't work. The internal wiring is too short on both the lilliputs and dynamixs to be able to extend and retract fully.

Regardless though the xenarc is worth the extra money IMO. It has a much better reputation for being reliable and even though its specs are almost exactly the same as some lesser priced competitors, in reality, I still find the image quality of the xenarcs to be clearer.

 

Just one thing: The screen does come with an original screen so what is the option for the other screen that will void the warranty? I am unclear about this. Thanks.

 

So The Dynamix Has Wires That Are Too Short? There Is No Way To Adjust For That? The Specs Are Identical....one Has A Longer Warranty But Is That Worth Twice The Price? Any Ideas To Make The Dynamix Screen Fit My Nav. Cubby----or Did I Really Just Waste My Dough?

 

Please Help!!!

 

out of curiosity, how much does one of their units cost? with or without a screen in it of course.

$599 For The Xenarc In The Custom Case For The Navi Cubby--digitalwheelz.com.....vs. $240 For My New Dynamix W/ Almost Identical Specs. I Think Ill Rig A Case With Brackets ,etc... Any Ideas? I Think If I Get This Right Ill Post A Diy For Yall! Also, Im In San Diego Area, Anyone Wanna Collaborate?

 

I did a DIY for how I built the digitalWheelz screen housing prototype before I decided to start manufacturing them, but I just got lots of responses asking if I would build one for them and almost no one asked about the specifics of the DIY guide. Your right in that the DigitalWheelz screen housing is not very economical. The raw uncut materials do not have a very high cost and the mechanics are not particularly complicated compared to the electronics of the screen that make up the other half of the cost. However, it is very expensive to manufacture and assemble the parts given the limited production runs of only 50 or so screens.

The xenarc does not offer very much in capability over lesser priced screens and it does have some limitations itself, but you do get a much more reliable screen which I think is very important when you start investing lots of time and money into building something custom around it. Just search on mp3car.com for comparisons of lilliputs or dynamix to xenarcs.

If you just want to put a screen in your car and aren't particularly picky about it hiding away or how it looks, you can just remove the cubby hole and cover and put the screens mouting stand on the metal radio mounting bracket in the center console. I did this before I built the screen housing with my xenarc and the metal stand and double sided tape it came with. It won't look stock, but it will get the job done for a lot less.

 

GL with that Dynamix. I've only heard horror stories of that screen. You may go through 2 or 3 of those while I'll still have my Xenarc.

 

They Do Have A 6 Month Warranty Too. Any Ideas On A Retractable Case/sliding Bracket?i Went To Hardware Store And They Had Only 12" Brackets And Bigger. If I Can Find Sliding Brackets To Mount The Screen, I Can Fit It In The Nav. Cubby...just Need To Find Tiny Sliders....
