besides, if it wasn't for my friend.... i would've gotten the Avic D3... lol

besides Traffic= D3>SNS

 

You mean to say that the AVIC-D3 does real-time traffic?

 

^it does not

 

oh... i thought it did... thats what the website says... maybe the N4 does it...

 

i think it does you just need to pay for subscription though

 

Correct me if I am wrong- the SNS unit doesn't come with what you need to install and you must buy the kit from Toyota?

 

^correct

 

hi

 

Does the SNS have RCA outputs in the back of it? Also how do you wire it so the ebrake doesnt have to be pulled for the dvd player to work

 

heyy...if im installing the D3...is this the bracket kit and wire harness i need (im not ordering the unit from crutchfield)

draxxus0321- there is no work around for the SNS yet, except for like programming work around that is very complex and can mess up your sh*t

Jeremy7- yes those are correct

 

yea the SNS does have a yellow rca input for video and u use the sterio input in the center console for audio.

also... yea there is a way u can cut the speed sensor wire for using the DVD functions... but that voids the warranty and its very dangerous while driving... but if u have an 05, then u need not to worry cuz the 05's dont have the speed sensor for audio ports...

 

So let me get this straight. The SNS has 2 slots one for dvd or cds and one for the NAV cd but the AVIC D3 only has one? how ill i be able to watch my scooby doo movies on an AVIC D3??? I mean i like the AVIC D3 better over all but if it only has 1 slot, then i just dont know anymore. And one more thing... is there a dvd/cd changer i can get for the AVIC D3 so that i wont have to be taking out the discs all the time???

 

no... the SNS has a slot for DVD/ NAVI Disc. nad another for CD/ MP3 CD.

and has a yellow rca input from the back... so if you want to hook up lets say a wii,

u put the video input in the back of the SNS and the audio inputs in the center console using aux in. (u need to get a red/white rca to 1/8th inch cable form radioshack)

i like the avic but the fact is that u can either do audio OR navi at a time.

 

is there any other, cheaper, alternatives to the SNS. something that has atleast 2 disk slots.[/quote]
