in the mean time, im studying the next HU to put in my G and Z... something with CarPlay or AppRadio or something that is more iphone based.

Madwi just put in that fancy Pioneer one. Was about $800 I believe. Newer version is hitting the market in February though.

1 bottle of stabil

Wheel chocks (Won't use e-brake for that long)
Battery tender
Inflate tires a few PSI past normal
Check mileage to give to insurance
A few dryer sheets in the car
Crack windows slightly

Anything else?

Moth balls or a cedar stick are also good deterrents for pesky rodents. I wouldn't leave the windows open though, that's how bugs n Sh!t get in there. If anything leave the HVAC system in the draw air from outside mode.

Def no moth balls. I'll grab a few dryer sheets. The place is heated and has tile floors so i'm not worried about bugs. I read to leave the AC in max blast mode or whatever our max AC setting is. Leave the car in 1st gear without the e-brake on. I have some steel wool for the tail pipes.

thanks. yah, im in no rush at the moment, will probably see watz up at CES and decide which one by march.

madwi- do you know if your fancy HU uses the same pioneer harness as the previous models like the AVH4500BT?
hoping for a p-n-p, like between my old 4100DVD to 4500BT.

thing was like a 15min swap.

i thought mothballs would work too, but it appears they dont work for mice which is our biggest threat during long winters.

i heard wacking the hood from time to time with a broom stick real hard also works to scare them rats off..
