Replying to: teamjd (Oct 05, 2006 5:52 pm) Sounds like a photo would help a lot. If you can host them on CarSpace, great, if not e-mail them to me and I can post them up for you. I think this would help a lot of folks.   Thanks.   -juice

Replying to: teamjd (Oct 04, 2006 4:43 pm) That's a EXCELLENT idea... Inside the center console underneth the arm rest...... You just got me thinking... Maybe mount it on the trunk door or the rear cargo window .....That way, when you turn your head back to see where u r backing up through the window, you can seethe backup cam too....   I was thinking of mounting it on top of the passenger airbag status light but I guess center console or the rear window would be better....

Replying to: teamjd (Oct 05, 2006 5:52 pm) Sorry, I was out of town for a few days. I will figure out a way to post photos in the next few days. Back to my last question about the use of the camera for the blind spot. With the camera mounted on the top screws of the lic. plate: If you are looking at the bottom of the screen, the ground starts showing up at 8 feet back. Looking at the bottom left and right of the screen the image is 8 feet back and 8 feet wide, so I don't think the blind spot falls into this area. If your using it for parking you will have to judge for your self when too closeeis too close.
#25 of 148 Kenwood CCD-900 Rear-view camera by tildekevins Sep 06, 2006 (12:26 pm)
It seems the Kenwood CCD-900 Rear-view camera is now in stock at some on line retailers. This may be the way to go for a retrofit on a 2006 Tribeca, no? -- Kevin Replies to this message: ateixeira (Sep 07, 2006 5:57 am) tupin (Sep 10, 2006 12:12 pm) ateixeira (Sep 11, 2006 6:11 am) and 2 more... megreyhair (Sep 11, 2006 8:12 am)

Replying to: tildekevins (Sep 06, 2006 12:26 pm) Be the first! Try it out. I may pick up a used '06 Tribeca next year and I'd love to know that's possible.   -juice Replies to this message: tupin (Sep 10, 2006 12:12 pm) ateixeira (Sep 11, 2006 6:11 am) pschreck (Sep 11, 2006 7:43 am) megreyhair (Sep 11, 2006 8:06 am)
#27 of 148 Getting a Tribeca by tupin Sep 10, 2006 (12:12 pm)
Replying to: ateixeira (Sep 07, 2006 5:57 am) OK, I'm actually in Canada and I'm buying a TRibeca in the US.....were're getting hosed here in Canada on Pricing of new cars.....   On Friday I will be picking up a Silver 2006 7 pass limited with Nav....got a great deal!!! I'm very excited. We used to own a 1998 Subaru Forester and just sold it...wanted something bigger. We bought this thing and have never driven one!!! Crazy or what??!!   A few questions... Can I convert the climate control readouts to Celcius? Ditto the outside temp readout? The nav seems to include Canada....much info on canada? is there a Canada DVD?   Any must have options?? I noticed that mud flaps are an accessory....some cars can get away without them....is this the case with the tribeca?   I think it's going to get a lot of attention...due to it's high price here in CAnada I may have the only one in my small province (PEI).   wealth of info on these forums.....are people finding them pretty reliable?

Replying to: tupin (Sep 10, 2006 12:12 pm) The NAV is DVD based and covers all of North America, so you're all set there. You can even make "Becky" speak in French.   Not sure about the Celsius trick, though. Anyone?   -juice Replies to this message: pschreck (Sep 11, 2006 7:43 am) megreyhair (Sep 11, 2006 8:06 am)

Replying to: ateixeira (Sep 11, 2006 6:11 am) I can't find it in the manual. That would be about right with this less than intuitive system. Subaru really needs to address the programming on it's NAV system. Everything seems to be backward when it comes to controling it's functions.   While it's better than nothing, I doubt that I would spring for it again.

Replying to: ateixeira (Sep 11, 2006 6:11 am) I think you can change the temp readout in the setting menu...
