Thanks SDG35619. I really appreacite you clearifing that for me. My next question is what would be a reasonable price to pay for the screen and the nav/dvd system. I live in Toronto Ontario, not sure if you're in the US, any suggestions would be great. Thanks

 

..oops, didnt see that you included the link to get the screen, thanks

 

Hey Black,

Iam I decerning correctly that you figured out a way to operate and adjust teh NAV while driving? This was one of the reasons why I was reluctant to get this unit. Also is it user friendly?
If you mentioned it already in the thread, just slap me. It's kinda late and I may have missed a relavent comment in the thread.

 

are you saying that if have the factory nav that you cannot have this setup, furthermore any additional HU that allows you to watch DVDs.
I really would like to have both...nav for me and DVD for wifey

 

so if I want to install this on my 06, how would the bluetooth wiring work? because it is connected to the bose system

 

I'm sure it would work but I'm not sure if there will be room for stock nav (since it has moving parts) and the Pioneer deck...someone else can maybe chime in on this.

 

here ya go...

 

You can install this unit regardless of whether you have the factory nav or not.

 

You can find good prices online, but don't expect a factory warranty. I heard of people paying as low $1000 for this unit.

If you want a warranty, I suggest buying from an authorized dealer such as crutchfield. They have it $1200 with a factory warranty.

Good question, I don't think anyone has opened up an 06 yet.

Since the bluetooth is integrated into the factory HU, my guess is that it would not work with an aftermarket HU.

 

dayam....i was wanting to put one in soon too....guess i'll wait for someone to open the new 06's up

 

Thanks Black,

It's people like who, who post their success stories and give good details, that make this forum worth-while.

 

So what needs to be soldered exactly?

The resistor, led and button? or is there more?

Thanks.

 

Hey blkonblk. I had a few questions. did you figure out if thw switch on the vss wire work?. can you also grab the vss wire from the stock head unit w/out bose? and last was it difficult installing the pac? I just ordered mines a few days ago. Can you tell me what wires tapped into what or how the whole process goes when installing the pac? Just trying to prepare myself before the install to make the process go alot faster. Im trying to figure out a way to hide the unit when im away from the car. You should see my set up on my civic to hide my kenwood ddx-7015. I'll try to get pictures up to give an idea on how to hide the unit.

 

does anyone know if the ECLIPSE AVN5435 head unit can be used instead of the Pioneer that Black on Black used? also is the conversion any different or harder if its a 6 speed?
