Looks good. I can personally attest to Shagster's skills as he installed the Poineer D3 in my car after all of the big box stores and speciality places said it couldn't be done or it would cost $700-800 to install.

You Maryland guys are awesome.

That's awesome! But I agree that it isn't the back where we need it. I never seem to have a problem getting close in the back. Mounted inside the grille is what I would want. About how much would a turn key installed cost be? And how is the camera selected on the display?

Mod. factory radio screen for video to RGB 799$
The radio does not have a video input. A PAC. VCI-X has to hard wired inside the radio.
When you put it in revers it comes up or a switch if you put it in the front

Shagster:

Do you have a website for your enterprise? And, could D-ville possibly be Davidsonville?

Thanks.

Peace, out.

Can you give us a pic on what it looks like on the Nav screen? They just had a situation here in DFW where I man was going around keying Hummers. He was caught when someone's Hummer DVR cam caught him in action. They played it on the news and he ended up turning himself in.

I put 2 10 inch subs in this vert. and a 5ch amp running everything. All in the back and you can still put a golf bag in the trunk. Stay tuned for picks and dimensions of subbox and woofers.
