A few questions about Eclipse HUs
I'm thinking about upgrading my current set up to include DVD and NAV and am not that impressed with the units that Alpine has to offer, so I'm thinking of heading in the Eclipse direction and have a few questions:
1. Is overriding the DVD while driving feature as simple as just grounding the parking brake wire? On the Alpines, a PAC-TR7 will bypass the feature. On Pioneer, it is a gyro and not possible (unless you use the back up cam input)
2. Does Eclipse offer XM? I only see an ad on for Sirius. Most other companies offer you the choice. I already have an XM subscription and don't feel like converting.
3. How much is involved to get all features of NAV to work in the C6? I'm talking about the VSS wire, GPS antenna, and any other "gotchas"?
Appreciate in advance any info you can provide.
