Replying to: allmet33 (Nov 13, 2008 10:23 am) 1) Does this unit enable all the steering-wheel buttons? 2) Does it still provide a speed-sensitive volume control?

Replying to: tonycd (Nov 15, 2008 10:29 pm) Pacific Audio Corp. makes steering wheel interafces for various vehicles. Pacific Audio Corp. I looked it up and the model you would need for steering wheel interface is SWI-ECL2. Speed sensitive volume control...I doubt it, you would need to check the features on the actual head unit itself to see if it's offered. Personally...it's an overrated feature, but that's just my opinion. |

Replying to: allmet33 (Nov 13, 2008 10:23 am) I saw your message on the steering wheel adapter. I will purchase one of those, probably off eBay. A scosche wire harness should do fine, right? Also, do you think I will need a custom install kit or is this puppy going to fit flush with the opening? I'm going to wait to hear the sound before I decide whether or not to switch out the door speakers. I also have to look into cracking the lock on DVD mode, so that it will play DVDs even when the car is not in park.

Replying to: justinrw (Nov 17, 2008 10:37 am) You will need to make sure you get a dash kit when you order the unit, a well as a wiring harness. As far as the sound...you'll definitely want to replace the factory speakers when you swap out the unit because the OEM speakers will distort much more quickly when you turn the volume up than with the OEM head unit. Reason being is the Pioneer unit has more power. There are options out there for you...all of the speakers are 2 ohm speakers except for the tweeters. I know for a fact that you can go with Infinity Kappa or Reference series, JBL GTO and Power series speakers as well. Here's a link to my page on Car Domain and you can see everythign I've done with my Azera to date... Allmet33's Car Domain Page As far as cracking the lock on the DVD mode, I don't condone it and you have to be aware that it can get you a ticket, but from my understanding it's all about bypassing a wire (grounding it) so that the unit thinks the car is in park.

Replying to: allmet33 (Dec 21, 2006 9:21 am) I finally got the AVN52D and am ready to install it. I have installed a few cd players in cars before so I feel like I can handle the installation myself, but I really want it to look right. Best Buy is charging around $160 to do the install. A local audio store is charging $60 an hour and acting like it will take them 3 - 4 hours, which is how long I figure it would take me to do it myself. Personally, the prices they are charging make it worth it for me to give it a try myself. I am purchasing the dash kit over lunch today. It is by the same company as yours.(Metra). Can you offer any advice on how to get the original unit out of the dash? Any other instructions or advice you can offer to save me time and make it a high quality installation? Your help is appreciated. In fact, you are the person that made me aware of the AVN52D - the gf got it at a steal of a price $600 - 30% live.com cash back, bringing the price to $420, includes hands free bluetooth and ipod adapter!)

Replying to: tonycd (Dec 23, 2008 10:00 pm) link title Basically it is a promotion by microsoft where they offer "cashback" or basically a rebate. The biggest savings can be had through eBay when using the buy-it-now function. So, the price on my AVN52D bundle was $600, but I searched for it through live.com while they were offering 30% back, and within 60 days or so, the 30% savings will be credited back to my account. I tried installing the unit last night but for some reason I am not getting any sound through my speakers. I must have crossed a wire when hooking up the wire harness. Color coding of wires should make it fool proof, but apparently I found a way to mess it up. Round two sometime this week/weekend. It really looked great mounted in the dash.

Replying to: justinrw (Dec 23, 2008 8:19 am) Hyundai Azera Factory Stereo Removal Please let me know if there's anything else you may need in the way of assistance. With the prices you quoted for an installation, you now see why I learned to do it myself.  Another thing, when you've installed it...the sense of accomplishment and pride you'll have that you did it yourself is priceless! Good luck and Happy Holidays!!! Mike |
