I bought a new DD and am going over the boarder to pick it up this monday or tuesday, but i need help with the installation. I'd like to avoid the 100-200 free shops are gonna charge. I know how to remove the dash and install the actaul unit, i just have no idea how to do the wiring

im looking for someone with experience installing DDs to give me a hand next week, a case of beer is in it for you


this is what i bought and need help installing:
- pioneer avic-x910bt and it's microphone
-metra 7551 harness
- pac steering wheel controls
- ipod interface
- antenna adaptor


I basically only need help wiring the wire harness, setting up the steering wheel controls and wiring up the microphone through the driver's side pillar

 

Pm GeeRider, he did mine a couple of weeks ago.

 

Sorry to hijack this thread a little but did GeeRider or anyone else local do the speaker wire through molex connector in the doors...I did DDIN and amp/speaker installation myself a couple years back but having problems with audio lately and want to fix up all the wiring. This part seems like the most challenging part but I'd rather run proper gauge wire this time around than use the stock speaker wires.

That and where did you guys mount your crossovers on the sedan? I had them on the very inside of the door shell at the bottom. I'm thinking it wasn't such a good idea cause after a couple of years my crossover has some rust on them from moisture/water from wet windows and this might be part of the cause of my audio problems. I'd like to mount it somewhere in the middle layer of the door (on the metal panel right behind the interior panel) but can't seem to find a good spot.

 

Pm Geerider, Im sure he knows what your talking about.

 

Ok thanks, will do

 

Hey Dancing Queen! hahaha how's the system sounding? Let me know if you have any issues.

 

damn you sir, damn you lol...thanks for the help
