2 more things:

Where did you mount your GPS antenna?

I am assuming the updated navigation discs are out, I'm going to have to upgrade now.

Default Actually

Daytime driving is tough, no glare, but the screen is very dull, sunlight and LCD's dont always mix. Its extremely hard for me to see the screen while driving with sunlight, I have 20% tints on my car, I usually close the sunroof shade, improves it a bit but not much. Also unfortunatly it seems navigation is 2D not 3D, which sucks compared to my tomtom one. If you look through my photo bucket you will see where I mounted my GPS antenna next to my XM antenna.

3A185 Apply this code at Crutchfield for 15% off 3 or more pioneer items priced over $50. Folks at avic411 have been getting the D3 and accessories like the BT module, XM/Sirius, rear-view camera, or USB module. Unfortunately the iPod cable is $30 so it wouldn't count towards the 3 items.

Sweet, I've been looking into getting the AVIC-D1 whenever I get the money.

Just out of curiosity, is there an option to change the color of the lighting on the buttons? I noticed that one picture has green and one has yellow, I won't be able to survive if I can't have blue buttons .
