Thanks. It's good and bad news - it's out, but would take until end of Feb for new customers to be able to get it due to their huge backlog!

 

i placed an order on christmas with logjamelectronics. i'll update with a shipdate for anyone else who might be backlogged. if you are and you find out a ship date, please post as well... i've been waiting for this for a month now!

 

i have the NIS 1, what are the significant changes in a nutshell?

 

biggest thing is 2 aux inout and you can use it in conjunction with the factory installed Sattelite radio!!!!

now you can have you cake and eat it too!!!

 

How easy is it to take apart the dash to install this?

 

if you have an 05+ i've read its really easy. check g35ipod.com in the forums

 

It took me a little over 1 hour to pull it apart and put it back together again in my 03 5AT coupe . That includes me taking my time on each step of the DIY I followed.

 

I had a look at the AAI-NIS2 documentation which left me a little puzzled as to whether it would be possible to use the SWI-X on the G35.

I haven't received my 2006 G35 6MT yet (planning to buy one towards the end of next month), but want to make sure the SWI-X is still a viable hardware choice before taking the plunge.

For those of you who have a SWI-X installed in your G with an AAI-NIS or AAI-NIS2. Can you share any info about steering wheel controls? Namely, what works and what doesn't.

 

There is a special output wire to make it easier to connect the SWIX to the NIS1. Not sure about the NIS2.

The SWIX only functions in SAT mode with the NIS1 (not all the time). In addition volume and mode buttons do NOT cause IR signals to be generated.

 

I looked at the instructions for the NIS2 and my question is this:

If you have a satellite receiver hooked up into the wiring harness, can you still use the factory steering wheel switch to switch between satellite and AUX, or do you have to get the SWI-X?

 

Thanks rcdash. Does the volume control still adjust the HU volume in SAT mode? or does it simply do nothing?

 

does anybody know where i could pick up this unit up instead of getting it online or do all car stereo shops have this unit on back order? how much did u guys pay for this device

 

I just ordered the NIS2 at a local stereo shop and also the aux pod. the guy that was working there told me i couldntuse the factory controls on the steering but on www.pac-audio.com it says that the aux pod is able to control the ipod using the factory buttons. so my question is who do i believe

 

Im not 100% sure if this place has them STILL in stock, but i picked one up on thursday. At the time, they had about 6 or 7 in stock. It's in the Orange County area. If you wanna call em up and check shoot me a PM n ill tell u the shop name and #.
