  8. Avic Install Tips

    in Radio/Electronics/Security

    Posted

    I just installed a Z1 in my wife's '05 Tahoe LT. Here are some tips from my experience:

     

    1) Remove the climate control unit and the HVAC vent next to the radio opening to give yourself extra spaces to reach in and around the radio to make it easier to guide all the wiring in as you mount the unit (it's a LOT of wiring and not a lot of space to stuff it in)

     

    2) You can mount the GPS antenna right to the metal shelf in the space behind the radio opening, it's in the upper right corner as you look at the dash. The Antenna has a magnetic backing and will stay put there and the plastic dash will not obstruct the antenna signal at all.

     

    3) I mounted the microphone on my turn signal control arm at the base nest to the steering column and ran the wire up under the gauge cluster. Works great and is close enough to you to minimize problems with proper command recognition.

     

    4) Once you have the unit installed, UPGRADE the HDD! I bought a new 60gb 5400rpm HDD (stock one is 30gb and 4000rpm) on eBay that was preloaded with the Z3 operating system (turns your Z2 into a Z3) and most up to date navigation data (March 2008 maps) for $80! PM if you want the details on the install and info for the seller.

     

    Enjoy the AVIC Z2, the unit is awesome and works very well!

    Since you have not installed your kit yet - if someone calls me for a fan kit I'll direct 'em to you first :thumbs:

     

    Mr. P.

     

    Thanks so much, that is very big of you!! To all others looking at this thread, Steve and Danny did a kickass job making these fan kits and EVERYONE would benefit from buying one! MUCH better quality and performance value than going the OEM route, take my word for it!!

  19. Fs: Custom Made Diamond Engagement Ring

    Bump and well good luck. If you had an EGL USA cert you might get that. They are the only ones that when they say a stone is a g color and VS2 clarity there is no doubt.

    Jewelry is never an investment in anything other than the relationship.

     

     

    I have the original IDI (Israeli Diamond Institute) Grading Certificate for the stone that actually rates it higher than the appraiser did, thanks. The reason the appraiser set his grading at the level he did is becuase he was looking at the stone in it's setting and not unmounted, like it was when it was initially graded.
