Hello Everyone,

I've got the Pioneer AVIC-D3 waiting for me under the xmas tree

I've been planning the installation, and the only thing I'm not clear on is the location to connected the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor). I have a 2007 GT.

I understand that this is not required for the unit to function properly, but I'd prefer to have this connected in order to use the full functionality of the unit.

If anyone had pics, that would be GREAT!!

Thanks!

 

Do a search for the unit name , there's a pretty extensive thread about it's install ...

 

Mark, here is a link below for the thread that has my install, Tom281's answers to questions, and Grabber07s install. Its a FANTASTIC HU. Just waiting for the weather to clear up so I can actually take the car out and use the nav again (only got 20 minutes before a torrential downpour). This should help you out!

AVIC-D3 thread

 

Thanks! Tom281's thread had a great picture of it. I think I'm all set to do the installation next week.

 

Its an easy install. the only slow part, is connecting all the wires from the D3's harness to the Metra harness. And don't forget to do the bypass, so you can watch movies without having the parking brake on! BTW, did you get the iPod interface cable?

 

Yeah, that tom281 is a pretty cool guy.....



Jeff, told ya you'd like that bypass..... works like a charm!

 

Indeed I will be doing the bypass. I already have the instructions printed out for this...and the ipod cable came in the mail yesterday. Woo hoo...

Thanks for the awesome info!

 

Good luck Mark, let us know how it turns out.

 

You will absolutely love the headunit!! Ive never had Nav in a mustang and let me tell you...its saaaweeetttt

 

DOUBLE SAAAWEEEETTT Just have to create a few pics for the backround!!!

 

The D3 install is done. I had a problem doing the bypass for the navi\video. The wire taps I used didn't pierce the wire, so the ground contact wasn't being made. Once I fixed that, everything worked like a charm. Thanks for the help...

Mark

 

EXCELLENT! Happy holidays!
