DIY: Kenwood DNX6140 installed in my 370Z with Sirius and back up Cam (AK370Z)

Hey AK,

I've got most of the stuff I need for a similar audio setup as yours:

The wiring harness, antenna adapter, Ipod adapter, PAC switch are coming in the mail.

I plan on getting this installed very soon and now I have to bug you with a few questions:

I can't really tell from your pictures, but did you have to remove the license plate lights to install or make room for your rear-view camera?

I also noticed that your camera is closer to the left side of your license plate. Did you have to drill any holes to the body or inner plastic molding to make room as well? Some of the other members who have installed a rear-view camera have it installed on the right side so I'm wondering if it was due to fitment issues?

Example 1: *videos* kenwood dnx6140 installed with pioneer rear view cam

Example 2: The Kenwood 7140, I wanted it!

I have the same Camera as you and was also wondering how you have it mounted: adhesive or bolted down etc

Aside from the camera questions lol, did you have to reset anything after the install was complete? IE: auto up/down windows, Syncro Rev Match, Maintenance interval settings, VDC traction control, etc?

I noticed your update to this thread for the passenger air bag reset. I'll keep that in mind so that it is re-connected before I turn anything on. Preferably before I even re-connect the battery.:

I don't know if you have the IPOD adapter (it looks as if you do since its highlighted as a source option on one of your pics) but I was wondering where you have the cable for it routed? I plan on having it in the center arm rest near the 12V outlet like the touring models and the USB cable on the center console cabinet.

I think that's about it; can't think of any more questions at the moment
