Thanks guys!
Here is some additional info about my HU selection;
Initially I looked at the eclipse 6610, while I know that the eclipse is a more highly recommended unit around these parts. At the end of the day I chose the unit that I felt would give more value to me. This unit plays divx, has xm, plays music files loaded on a memory stick (via a usb connection), it also features full ipod integration. I have a creative zen so use the audio video connections in my glove box to listen to music on the zen or watch movies, it also features excellent Bluetooth cell phone integration and dual zone listening (my daughter's favorite feature).

11 inch headrest monitor.

 

that's a huge headrest monitor lol. good stuff though

 

That's a lot of ice yo!

 

I have to see this twice huh. Dammmit i'm going to go broke before Christmas. You should've done this before father's day. Then I could've conned my wife into one of those head units. SO SICK..

Good Job

 

great selection. that's the new version of my DDX6019...a little too late, you can change backgrounds and i can't and i have the 9" version of your headrest monitors...didnt have the 11" last year when i bought mine...do yours turn on automatically? i couldn't figure out a way to make mine come on with the car

last question..i'm getting that same bluetooth (BT100 i think?) how did you run the mic up there?! i would be eternally grateful if you could run me through that because that's the only thing keeping from getting it...i'm stumped at how to get the cable up there...never removed the interior from the roof

 

The monitors do not come on with the car and actually that's the way that I prefer it. I only put them on when I need them. I paid to have everything installed so can't help you with the "how to", sorry. All I can tell you is that you will be very happy once you have the bluetooth installed, call quality is outstanding as is its ease of use.

 

I have my bluetooth mic in the same spot and all I did was run the wire under the weatherstripping and then pushed it under the pillar cover. No visible wires at all

 

thanks. sounds like an easy job then. now i know where to put that danged thing. let's see how it works with my phones.

 

Nice stuff...

How's the quality on those 11"ers?

 

The quality is very good, much better than what I expected.

 

Man I wanna get some screens like that in my headrest. If u were to buy just a dvd player and 2 screens roughly how much is it to get everything installed and working including the price on the parts? I havent looked into much audio video stuff but im going to sometime soon. Looks badass man!

 

Does that dash kit come double din or did you cut out a single din kit?

 

I just bought my video setup

9 inch Innovatek IN909 headrest Monitors $242.50 ebay
RCA half DIN remote mount DVD player sonicelectronix.com $158.00
NESA Vision 7002 7 inch LCD screen for up front $133.00 ebay
Clarion signal bootser cardomain.com $29.00
Possibly a Clean Sweep by JL Audio $299.00 ABTelectronics.com instead of an FM modulator since I'm not doing a Headunit.

If you do most of the set up and prep work yourself like removing the trim and console and things like that you save a lot on the labor for the install. Labor is going to cost me $55 for just one hour all the shop will do is connect the wiring and I do the rest.

 

Nice work bro coming along GGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRREAT!

 

Thanks fellows! I like my new setup, but still miss my carputer.

 

Looks pretty nice bro. Its time to let the carputer go..lol

 

Ha, put it to good use.

 

Looks great bro, way to represent!!!

 

Tight work.. I was thinking about doing the samething but im not sure if it will come out right. I always have some kind of luck that something wrong is going to happen esp the people here dont care about the jobs they do.

 

Looking good. I know the baby is enjoying the set-up.

 

shawndon.. ur ride looks awesome. what type of grille is that?

When you guys install aftermarket navi, do you lose all the features from the info center (ie. fuel econ etc)?

 

Certainly one of the best video/audio setups i've seen. Great work.

 

Nice man, but where's your cd slot now?

 

The CD/DVD slot along with the SD slot (needed when updated maps are available) are located behind the touchscreen.

 

Nice UnMaTcHeD , not a bad switch from the carputer, you have to admit!!!



The info screen still functions, it has to because all your climate controls (most used) are on there...amongst other things!

 

That headrest monitor is pretty pimp, I hope you got two?

 

Thanks JSmith...it's easier to use.

anwar, I have two headrest monitors and the one above the head unit up front.

 

Nice look. where did you get all this done? Did you also get all yellow LED's changed to blue at the same place? if you don't mind can I ask how much you paid for the LED change?
