CoolCatGee, are you using the FM modulation or did you find a way around it? I know you could use the factory CD changer cable on other cars.

Re: Installed DVD player for NAVI

Check out www.avelectronic.com

I have asked the guy, and most of his NAV Conversion is a plug & play solution, however, he said his NAV Conversion for the G35 right now requires only cutting one wire...

I am still trying to get him to come up with a plug & play solution which I am sure other owners will be more than willing to do....

No, I didn't ask...

If it is cutting one wire, then I might as well go for the other conversion... It will be much cheaper...

However, I am willing to pay 500 for a true plug & play solution...

Re: Installed DVD player for NAVI

I have emailed AVelectronic and am waiting for a reply.

I am willing to be the guinea pig on this. But, I also asked about availability of warranty/refund. I am also going to try to work out a group buy... if any of yall are interested?

Re: Installed DVD player for NAVI

I have emailed him regarding a group buy... apparently he is not willing to do a group buy...

Plus I am only interested in the plug & play not cutting any wires... may be you should bug him to come up with the plug & play too!!!

Re: Installed DVD player for NAVI

paintballbitch, I have already taken a look at the many different methods of converting the stock navi to have DVD capability, and this seems like it will be the easiest and cheapest way to do it (considering that the gex-p7000 is nearly impossible to find, and only used ones can be found. and im not about to risk buying a used unit).

I am ordering from avelectronic soon and installing the unit on my own. based on the knowledge of the nav system wiring that I have, I believe that we can simply tap into whatever wire avelectronics is mentioning because I cannot imagine any wire that we would have to CUT in order for their system to work. and also, if all we have to do is tap into one wire then it is easy to pull out avelectronics system if we ever need to bring the car in for warranty work on the nav. system or screen...

Re: Installed DVD player for NAVI

True....

but I am pretty sure it is cutting the same wire as other conversion... you can get the Pioneer unit at alot of online retailers......

Check out www.etroincs.com, onlinecarstereo.com, infinitecarstereo.com & ebay
