From Phanon_TC's D3 thread:



I learned how to wire my PAC-SWI for my aftermarket Pioneer deck using that picture alone. I wrapped the resistor and soldered wires in heat shrink tubing, but other than that, that's the only picture I needed.

The tech articles on this site not enough for you to be able to do this yourself?

I've never worked on a car in my life until I got my tC, and from this site alone, I was able to install nearly all my mods. It's not that difficult to put in a headunit, especially when it comes to a car that comes apart like Legos.

LOL, I need a vacation too. so for now, I need the d3, with the steering adapter, with the ipod cables, and I know I need something else to be able to close the little door.

drill the little indents on the stock brackets with a 3/16" drill. buy the metra dual din harness kit, then you will be able to mount it far enough back without worrying about hitting the door.

to close the door?

...again, from Phanon_TC's thread CLICK:


Drilling out those inner holes will allow the door to close period. If you're talking about automatic closing, then you'd need a tCover.

i know pioneer used to make one, but iono if it works with the d3. also, id think itd be unfortunately useless since i think in April 2009 all over the air stuff (including wireless mics and television) will be eliminated :/ thus making a TV tuner (less you can get satellite) would be obsolete :/

change your staging first, then set your HPFs. each time you change the staging the hpf changes.

Only thing getting shut off is the analog TV signal. If anyone makes a DTV tuner that would be fine. Or if someone makes a tuner that converts the digital to an analog signal, like Samsung and a few other companies have in the works for home use, you would be fine.
