I'm planning on getting a AVIC-D1
Are all the navigation data DVDs the same version out of the box? or are there newer and older versions ?

Is there any specific version of the AVIC-D1 that i should get?

also, is the 1 year warranty effective if i get it from ebay?

thanks

 

I got ver 1.0 out of the box 2 months ago.
It's def not the most recent.

The deal I made (local vendor) was that I'd get current ver no extra cost..
Haven't gone in yet to check.

 

Just found out its v1.2 but still don't know if it comes with the D1s produced later on.

Why are the Avic-D1s sold on ebay so much cheaper than those from stores?
Is it worth the risk of having no warranty getting one on ebay? Has anyone had a defective one out of the box?

 

also is it possible for a car stereo shop to install the D1 in a day? Anyone got theirs done in a day?

 

I did my own in like 6 hours, I'm sure a professional shop could do it in a day. I also put in the iPod adaptor and XM Nav Trafic Tuner. If they can't I'd be suprised.

 

ver 1.0

 

can anyone tell me where to get the required components for the D1 installation at a reasonable price? crutchfield's too expensive

pac swi-ps
scosche nn03 (cardomain seems to have a good price but do they have good service?)
nissan antenna (most car stereo shops have it right?)

 

Not sure on the PAC, but I picked up a nissan wiring harness and the nissan antenna adaptor at Circuit City. The harness wasn't Scosche but it was easy enough to figure out. Just match the colors up.

I don't really know which to buy from, first time spending above $1000 on ebay so any advice on which seller to buy from is appreciated.

 

@#$#@$ went with the wrong seller on ebay. It was stated that there were 2 available
Damn, they're not replying emails. Paid ard $1200 for the whole thing.
