Hi all,

My CD player has done it again, CD FO ERROR. I have had it with this POS! So I'm investigating the Double Din replacement of that POS. Has anyone in the Houston area gone this route? I need some help and sugestions on how to get music back into my G35......

 

blackonblackg35 has done the pioneer in his coupe. maybe hit him up?

g35_foo says that he knows a stereo shop that has done his, I think?

I'm looking into it, but may have to wait until after christmas (eclipse 5435).

 

+1 on blackonblackg35, he did his own install and its super clean! That man knows what he is doing!

 

you can DIY and blackonblackg35 helped with my install. but the shop i go to can do it within a few hrs now... he has been doing audio for like 17yrs now... www.innovativerides.com is his website. (i have navi and he bypass teh bose amp) if you have any questions just shoot me a pm and i get discounts on Headunits also.

I have done quite a bit of investigating upgrading to a double din stereo upgrade. It looks like it cannot be done for under at least $1000.
I am not willing to spend that much money....I could replace the POS stock HU three times for that. Sooooo I think I will just replace this piece of crap with another POS. Pardon my French! This really sucks! I have even entertained the thought of putting a single CD player in the upper Glove box, and using the stock radio and cassette. Infiniti should be ashamed of this CD changer...I know I am.

 

Another reason why I am getting the extended warranty for sure!

 

Cato...my cd player just went out on me a couple days ago with that ERR FO message. This will be the first time after 73k miles. Since my warranty is gone, how much is it to replace the POS at the dealership? And is that the only thing they can do is replace it? They don't know how to fix it?

 

I was quoted around $325 to have another POS put into my G.......
I'm sure they will not offer to put anything else in it, and it will not be a new one, but refurbished and sure to die soon. OH GOD.... WHY ME?????????

 

daym!!! $325 for that piece of crap? can they get the cd's that are stuck in there out for us at least??

 

I Got Mine Replaced W/ A Double Din Right Before The Hurricane. I Got The Kenwood 815. The Shop Did A Pretty Good Job. Do You Want Me To Get A Quote For You W/ Install , Just Let Me Know What Screen You Iterested In . I Got The Double Din For 325 But That Sucker Take Forever To Arrive.

 

hey cato if you change ur mind. i can get the head units cheap. just let me know. if not you can get a decent alpine single din for like 2-3 hundred dollars. try ebay. if you want a screen its going to be 8 hundred and up.
