S. Koreans ftmfw




w00t w00t. i love it.

A few things I don't like. The the likes out weight the dislikes. So it's all good.
I guess you lose the steering wheel controls without the steering wheel module.
Color match the switches and all.
Need my steering wheel control module.

Viper 791vx and JL 500/1 going in soon.
My JL w6v2 just got the box finished. It's chillin...

Why the D3? It was half the price. The other ones are either flip out. I don't like.
The higher models just remember most taken paths. I mean what's the point if it's most taken and you take them over and over. You already know that route.
Unless someone borrowed your car. But you know that won't happen. We hear the horror stories.
They also have a 10gig HD. Who needs that space, Just buy a iPod.
Price of D3 + iPod is far less than the higher end ones.

Scionizer07 has the best price on them. Send him a pm. That's who I bought mine from. Great guy. Drove over an hour to do my install for me. Great work.

Can't say. But what I do know is. They are out there for $900 installed. Wiring harness and mounting kit all included. So if you are on the East Coast and drive over here. It'll be $900 installed.

Crutchfield was offering 850 for the d3 with 15% off coupon plus a lot of other free stuff in their promotion that you could of sold and the cost of the d3 would be about 650-700 depending how much you sold the other stuff.

Thanks for the props Chris! It was my pleasure to install your D3! Anyway, like Chris said, I'm doing them for $900 installed if you're local, $845 shipped with kit and harness. Here's a pic of mine.

How does the bluetooth thing sound? Does it come with a mountable mic? Do people on the other end of the line complain of too much background noise?

Is it worth it?

Sounds as good as my phone does. its obviously not cd quality and when you play it amplified over speakers its not perfect, but certainly as good as phone qaulity can get ya. Yes it has a mountable mic. and ive had no complaints thus far. most people cant tell im not using my phone. too me it was worht the $150 i paid since i got it with 15% off deal through crutchfield and that fact that its all integrated make it even nicer.

LaydDly, OK, so why is your traffic button lit? You have NavTraffic? I see the Sirius, but wheres the XM for the navtraffic? Fill me in. I've done numerous D3's and haven't messed with the traffic options yet.
