Mark,

Nice, same as the one I installed (except mine has the 3 grooves). Great price, the dealer in Los Gatos gets about $190 for same thing.

Check into OEM mudflaps next, should help keep your rig clean.

Looking good!! Getting mine installed on Tuesday.

How is the quality of the video/audio and did they give you back your original headrests in case you decide to change the screen in the future?

Looks great. Post a rear camera pic if you get a chance.Were did you put the gps antenna?

Mike E
01-10-2006, 12:36 PM
That is sweet! I want one!!! The trouble is i don't think there's any good installers in my area. At least none that I would trust not to screw up the electrical. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

Whats the model # on that Pioneer unit?

If you are somewhat technically inclined its not that hard... do it yourself.

you've got the forum to help you as they did with me.

My installer said the antenna would work better on the roof due to the vertical windshield of the H3 .
Below is were they put mine

MarK M
01-10-2006, 05:54 PM
thats not a bad place to put it.

for the verticle windshield... I dont really have a problem at my current location. I checked for satelite signal and i'm gett like 5 satelites.

But the location of your antenna looks good. I might just do that same!

update... Got the CB installed. I'll be sure to take pics. I haven't mounted the antenna yet. I got the Gobi Stealth rack coming and i'll just mount the antenna on the rack to keep it simple.

pictures to come!

Damn that looks great.

Do you have a shot of the view from the rear view camera. I was thinking about mounting one up top like that but wasn't sure how it would work. Even thought about mounting it to the rack if I get a Gobi.
