ok i installed my new farenheit lcd. heres a pic.... the quality on it is actually pretty good.... i used hot glue to hold it in place but i guess i didnt use enough cuz its starting to fall down from place. i gotta reapply it. also, when i rev the engine or even have the car running, i get these wavy lines in the screen. i dont know if its the screen or the dvd player, jvc 5100. could it be because i just hooked the black and red to the cig lighter? should i have grounded it seperately, or just not used the cig light at all? anyway heres the pic....

o yea aladdin

 

Very very nice!! I wish I had know about this when I had my 4th Gen.

 

Looks good but how much extra did it cost you for those scratches to the right?.......

 

Why didn't you just tap into the power and ground off the headunit?

 

yea im gonna reatched the cig lighter and do that... i duno y i didnt do that....

yea and the scratches were there from before....im gonna try to get rid of them some how.... any suggestions?

 

Good Job. Compared to mine, I think without the bezel is better. ( it doesn't look as aftermerket.) We should do a poll.

 

thanks....thats wat i was going for.... i want someone to look in and thinks it factory navi or something.... dont want theives the notice it right away

 

well i just wired the screen to the the same power and ground as the deck and im still getting alittle interference in the screen.... its not bad tho....

 

anyone know y im gettin the wavy lines, i get it when the bass hits hard too

 

grounds...i believe

 

If changing the wiring helped I'd assume it lies somewhere in the wiring. There is a voltage drop somewhere possibly but most likely its because of the RPMS fluctuation which would mean its picking up noise from the electrical system, maybe try moving the wires to a different location but leave them connected the way they are.

 

I have some of those scratches too Looks nice though. I've had some people say some matched SEM paint would do it, but something tells me it may look better to find it in a junkyard and replace, as I couldn't imagine being able to fix those scratches to look perfect.....

Screen looks nice. I would start by checking and rechecking grounds too....maybe beefem up or make sure you have a good groundpoint. Are you getting alternator whine? Is it grounded real tight?

 

maybe it is the ground.... i tapped into the decks ground, i didnt directly ground it.... mayb thats the problem.... im just gonna leave it how it is until i take everything apart again to install my speakers

 

Yeah taking stuff back apart sucks

 

Hell of a job. Very clean. I am a sucker for simple and clean. Too bad mine isn't yet

 

Nice job, I want a touchscreen for my car once I get some money
