I got the camera set up so i can look at it while im driving forward to...it sees in my blindspots a little bit...pretty bad ass.

the sound quality of the speakers is alot better

The guy who installed it said that he could not find a speed sensor adapter for our car for the unit ...its the Eclipse avn 660. anyone kno where i might be able to find one? the navi works better than my last handheld one....but would be better with that adapter.

it also has a seperate disk slot for the map disk...so i can switch from dvd to navi while im drivin.

im going to fix that big black license plate frame ...ct some off to make it a litte more low key

 

i want oneee

 

Yes I want one tooo. It looks soo good

 

haha awesome now i want a rearview camera.. i was thinking about it before but never went for it.. i found one for like $60 is that what you paid for it ... looks awesome bro nice install

Thanks guys....actually that cam waslike 190$ ....but it was all a paid for by mom for graduation so i did it ...ha

 

not bad.. after this post like 2 sec later i went onto ebay and bought one lol ... it came out to $47.50... i cant wait to install it now

 

nice dude ....glad to inspire...ha..what kind of unit do u have ? some can be wired to go when u put it in reverse....this one is like a seperate a/v selection. i dont mind it tho. going 90 and watchin stuff fly by behind u looks pretty cool

 

Did you use the wire harness to keep your onstar or anything? I have onstar and I dont really want to loose that if at all possible.... But I love the look of that head unit. It looks awesome man!

 

How much did you pay for the radio?

 

i have an alpine head unit.. ii can wire it to go on in reverse or just stay on all the time wich is what i am going to do then just switch between sources to veiw.. i use to hook my digital camera up to it just for ***** and giggles

The unit was 1699$ ...and i dont have on star...not sure if the harness would change that.. but i still have my door chimes and what not ...and that will be cool having it go on when u go to reverse..or the option not

thanks again for the props guys...any idea on that speed sensor adaptor...???

 

i am hatin!

 

Yea ..not to sure if we have any....."cannabis enthusiasts" on the site...but at night with tinted windows and this units "theater" sound setting....its so badass to drive around watching s good comedy....and burnin a fat one

I am thinkin about painting the actual peice that holds it silver to try and match the stock dash peices...but i dunno if i can find a paint that looks like that.

 

what kind of double din kit do you have because I tried to get one for my SS and Crutchfield told me that they don't make a kit fo the Cobalt

 

how much was it? oh by the way put some shoes on sasquatch lol jk man

 

Nice man, I just installed my AVIC-D3 with a backup camera and I love it. I know you can tap into the PCM under the hood for the VSS but it is not worth the hassle - I have used these nav units with and without the vss wire and the only time it will screw up the nav is when you are in a tunnel or where you can't get a clear gps signal. The speed is actually tracked from the gps satellites too not just from the VSS wire.

Also, do you have a problem with the camera at light when your license plate light is on? I need to install a relay or something to get the plate light to turn off when the camera turns on because the light just floods the picture at night.

 

no problems with the light flooding it out...it kinda points down..i think that helps

and i will call up there and see what in das peice it was. ill get back to ya

 

yeah that ***** pretty sick...looks OEM too.

 

I am leaning toward the KENWOOD DNX7100 or the ECLIPSE AVN6610. Most lickley the Kenwood do to the price. Does anyone have any opinions on those?

 

Good Job Bro

 

whats OEM ? feeling like a noob

 

I never installed the rear view camera to mine, i didnt want it, but i do have to put the xm on it again, or renew my subscription, but anyways the screen looks great, and you have the same thing as me, the black bezel that holds the screen in, imma paint mine i think not sure yet

 

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer
Basically saying "looks OEM" is a quick way of saying "it looks like it came that way from the factory"

 

ohh thanks..badass...i think i am gonig to do a little paintin...should look more stock but thanks alot guys

 

Very nice! Thats a great place to put it you barely can even tell that its a camera down there.
