My buddy and I installed my new D3 and back up camera this weekend. Here's a few pics. I'm gonna have to get a pic of the iPod interface... it's sick!

Here's the navi



Here's the back-up camera



No rear wiper...



Here's a pic of the camera

 

nice install and placement of the rear camera!

 

does that camera have small LED's around it for night time use?? cuz thats what it looks like. if so, was that the one that poineer sells or another company??

thanks

 

The camera has 10 red LED's on it that it uses for the infrared night vision. I got it off of a guy on ebay. You can pick them up for about $40.

Here's some good infor on what kind to buy...

I like your little xB toy :] Do they make them in the xB2 models??

 

Not that I know of. A girl in the club gave me one at the last meet, that's why it's there.

 

There's a hot wheels or matchbox gen 1 if you look in the toy section of your local store. I have been waiting for a tC since I got mine and it makes me mad that it still hasn't happened.

Hopefully they'll have a gen2 out soon though.


Back on topic, how well does that "infra red" mode work? Can it see pretty well at night?

 

I'll just say that it's not as clear as 56" HD t.v., but it does the job. The darker it is and the less headlights there are behind you, the better it does.

 

*repeat comment from other thread* :D

 

Did that xB1 toy come with the D3? Or did your installer glue it there?

Cause it might get thrown and hit you in the eye if you were to get in a car accident.

 

Ha ha! Oh my! You're starting to sound like the uber goober gomer fudgantrys on this site! Wow! That was good! French!

 

What about the french? Their fries? Or perhaps their toast or dressing?

 

looks really clean and nice! Good Job!

 

Thanks mang! I had help, actually he did 90% of the work, but I'll take some credit. I mean, I forked out the $$$ right?

 

is there a way to angle that camera down slightly? I wish it was able to see closer to the bumer for those tight-fit parking spaces at college and what not :p

Good to see another NBM with a D3!

 

i got the pioneer camera and it shows the bumper line. parking is a piece of cake

 

Yeah, you just add angled washers. As you can see there's one installed, but the angle isn't steep enough. I need to pull it out and grind it down to a steeper angle so that I can see a little bit lower.

 

XB2Pilot - Any chance of a pic?
