When I get around to that I definitely will, but for now I dont feel like I need it

one thing i STRONGLY recommend is when you pull-up the shifter ring (first step), place a thick towel under it so you dont scratch the center console when you place it down.

not that i scratched mine, but i see a lot of folks with scratched center consoles.

yah, might want to read about the shift knob removal thread... you might get lucky, but mine was a royal pita to remove. broke 2 strap wrenches.

LOL i have an aftermarket knob already, and I did destroy my stock knob in the process, but my new knob is easy off.

Looking good OP

I picked up the AVH-X3500BHS a few weeks back.
Does anyone know if radio preset seeking steering wheel control (w/PAC SWI-RC) works with these 2013 line of Pioneer HUs? I know there is a limitation listed on the PAC website, just wondering if it still applies. The way I have it setup now I can only manually go through the band in .2 increments.

"Pioneer AVIC-Fxxx radios do not interpret radio preset seeking commands. This is a limitation of the radio not the SWI-RC. There is no correction for this unless it comes from Pioneer. "

looks good, jenz. i saw a couple other people placing their mic there. originally i was going to place mine there too, but i decided to place it near the rear view mirror as i could tuck the clip into the ceiling liner more cleanly.

im using a 4yr old peripheral (pac) on my 4500BT and for FM radio, i do need to select the presents on the display to scroll. other then that, everything works. i dont really listen to the radio so this is no issue for me.

i will be installing a 2500BT in the next week or so using a ASWC in my dd. will post back how that works. its on my honda, but it has the same steering wheel controls as my base Z.

if pioneer does a firm ware update on these units, i hope they also add some feature to turn the clock off. my 3100, 4100 both worked fine with pac (all functions including FM scroll by preset) and allowed the clock turn off.

At first the location of the BT felt weird.... I am short and sit so close up that it almost felt as though it was right in my face... But now it's ok.
