Hey man, I was just wondering why you didn't get the keyhole in the trunk plugged and painted when you did the holes for the wing? I have seen a bunch of people do it and it looks super clean. Do you not like how it looks?

Honestly never really thought about it. I was so concerned with just getting the holes up top filled and am trying to not mess with the car too much. At some point I will repaint the front bumper, hood, and few other things and will have ot done then. The car wwas down for two months and I just got to the point I was like FOK iT, I need it back together. I still have a ton of things to do. But at least I can drive it for a little while before tearing it apart again But yes, I agree with you, it would've looked alot better.

I was searching for a good hour or so and reading reviews on google what headunit to replace my crappy 5yr old pioneer with and its funny because I went with the same exact headunit you did. I guess we both know how to use the internet right I am gonna hook mine up today, but how do you like yours? did you get a chance to play with it yet? I read its kind of tricky to setup once installed, what are your feelings on that?

The unit is nice and I dont feel its very complicated. But Im use to flying big dollar jets with crazy navigation units so this isnt bad at all. The only thing I dont like about the unit is it doesnt display cross roads and you have to be zoomed all the way in to get any road data. You'll see what I mean. But its an aftermarket unit so I guess I cant expect it to operate like the new Audi MMI Im overall happy with it and I bought it mostly for the bluetooth and Ipod capabilities. There are a few cool features called avicfeeds and pandora. I still havent read through everything but it looks like you can plan a trip on the ipone and just transfer tha data??? Lots to read and I'll get caugfht up on it the next few days.

Does the bluetooth also act as a wireless music setup or is it strictly for voice? We recently setup a car where the bluetooth worked as a wireless link so the customer could walk into the car, hit play on his iPhone and it'd play what was currently playing on his music list which I thought was pretty slick.

Yes it does... Although I have a separate cable and dedicated IPOD for it. I keep very little music on my Iphone4.

Built-in Bluetooth technology with microphone
Stream music from your Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone and utilize the integrated microphone for hands-free calls. Echo cancellation and automatic phone book transfer for added convenience.
