My Speakers keep cutting out before it was my Driver's Side now its my Passengers Side will a new HU Help this. iam thinking of getting a Pioneer one for like 1-200 dollars just to let me have a decent radio for the time being before i redo my whole system iam leaning towards the AVIC-D3 or the AVIC Z-2

 

Change it all.

 

ha ha whats up man! yea iam just looking to change the head unit for now i dont have the money yet for a full system but would a Aftermarket Headunit help with the cut outs til the time being.

 

Mine cuts out but that was cause the theives tried to yank out the bose. It messed up the plastic connector on the harness from fitting snug on the bose. Check to see if the connnector is messed up. Or you could just change out the front speakers to see if that helps. It could be speakers, factory amps, or the hu, just use process of elimination.

 

has anyone ever installed a Aftermarket Headunit into there Bose. whats it sound like

 

Better than just the Bose unit but changing out the speakers would give you the biggest gain in better sound. You could even just change the front speakers if you'd like. There is a how-to showing how to take apart your bose unit and fix the audio cutout; although I'd rather just replace it myself.

 

yea iam just gonna get a new HU. wouldnt there be a big gap though. cause the stock headunit looks like a double din.

 

Replace your HU and the tweeters, if you dont want to mess with running wires to the doors. Thats what I did in my 03. Sounds better than stock. Also added a 12" Type R.

 

u got pics?

 

Here is the pic from my 2000. Don't have any of my 03 set-up. Kinda similar, just has the GXE kit instead of Soche.

 

is there some kind of cubby hole thing i could buy to put under it.

 

Under what?

 

the radio. you think i new Head unit would fix the problem.

 

A lot of folks have had issues with the 03 Bose HU's. Get an after market HU and check.

 

yes i kno. ive read all about it. this isnt my first post about this either. i was just wanted other's opinion on it. and if they have a Aftermarket Headunit connected to there Bose System and if that made a difference in the cut outs for them.

 

I got the same problem. I want to change my system too. But anyone know a cheaper and easier thing to do such as just change the speakers or add an amp??? anyone?

 

These questions have been asked and answered TONS of times, just look at the stickies or search through the first 2/3 pages of threads or use teh search function that works for everyone.

 

I've been living with this issue for almost a year now. I don't understand it! While playing CD's, it sounds seriously muffled. While playing the tape deck, I get audio on the right only and when I play the am/fm radio, its perfectly clear. I heard rumors about it being a loose connection (and was further convinced when the CD player cuts back in after hitting bumps) and asked the Nissan Service dept to check it. They told me that the unit is probably going bad. Ok, yeah maybe so.

Now I've been running around to Circuit City and Best Buy and local installers trying to find a solution. They all tell me that I will lose the sweet lady voice on the Nav (which I can deal with), but I can get an aftermarket unit + metra harness + radio antenna adaptor and it will work. The Nav is outdated, I'll get a standalone one later. Like others, I'm not ready for new interior speakers ( tweeters, front doors, rear doors and rear deck).

I'm going to get this done for sure and I'll post the results.

 

Yo STILLENGLE, I have the same issue I changed the HU to an aftermarket unit in Dec. At the time 1 speaker was not working, now 3 are out. The highs on the pillers still work though. So if you want change out the speakers first then get the HU you want. Plan out your whole system first.
