Hey Big A, has anyone with a touring and navi gotten their bose system out and an aftermarket one installed? something with a double din touch screen?

LOL you are all nuts.

it's like the N word, only they are allowed to use it.

Apparently you cant use it here even if you are one :p

Yeah pretty much.

I don't like that rule.. I think it should be everyone or no one.

I'm trying to promote no one.. but I feel like I'd lose that push...

OH SOA is on!

oh but it's not the season premier yet....

nice things, rofl.

Not yet I am dreading and looking forward to the day that comes. It will be interesting.

Thats what I'd want. Have two screenies.. :D

Wait does taht mean no one has done it or just that you haven't yet?

LOL well I am waiting for one care to volunteer? But I mean it is pointless because you can not hear what the nav is saying out of the factory one so why have it. And that is all it rely is used for. I mean the new aftermarket one will be able to do everything the factory one can do and more.

Need my Z first, and for that, I need to decided where I want to work/live based on who has something in my line of work. Once I figure that out, I'll order my Z. :D

Then yeah I may be talking to you about what setup :)

No one has because they do not knwo what the customer wants and all. People with the 2 screens I mean there is no real reason for it and it is a ton of customizing for it.

Save your money get a base one and get a nice aftermarket head unit.

Ahh i was thinking more along the lines of utilizing magden or HKS Camp II

I want leather... so there is my touring....

Well if you want to do it like that than you would have to find the bypass for the video "working on that" and than you can have your HKS hooked up all the time to the nav screen.

But with the HKS hooked up I then wouldn't be able to use the GPS at the same time...

No you use the HKS on the nav factory screen and have the nav on the aftermarket head unit

Just going to take a bit of time for me to figure out this video bypass for the factory unit.

Oh I'm following you, yeah thats why i was asking about the two screens.. if i did that i'd just use the nav on the aftermarket unit

I thought you meant just hook the HKS to stock nav and don't add the second screen.. I follow now. :) I guess it all revolves around a video bypass for hte factory nav

Well no you would put a regular monitor in your little cubby fiberglass it in and have it hooked up there and still have your aftermarket head unit. and than you just buy your seats later lol.

Here is another question.. asuming you have hte blue tooth you have the microphone in the cabin. now if you switch to the new head unit you need to use a new microphone i'd imagine. anyway to keep the existing one in place and wire it up to the new aftermarket unit instead?

Maybe it would be smarter to just buy the car outright as a base and have them swap out hte seats and door panels on pick up.. this way it's easy to swap out the sound system later on...

Yes I can do that to just have to find the wires and integrate them into the new head unit. UNLESS it goes threw a amp of some sort for filter.

You have no idea how much easier that would be for me and probably on your wallet.

So I take it I am doing your install?:ugh2:

that's what friends are for

Oh I hadn't gotten that far.. just that you seem to be the resident audio guy to go to.. figured i'd ask you the things i've been pondering.. :D

Well dont be afraid hit me up on anything pm aim yahoo messenger I dont care. I am always happy to help out. But yes that is what I would recommend doing.

Cool, Thanks :tup:

Now unless you have anymore questions than lets continue onto something else. Who here likes dave and busters.

Im a shut in

OH I like going there from time to time. Last time i went i went with my bro and a bunch of guys he works with.. was a good time..

Well for the past 2 weekends my friend and i have been having like a competition thing going on. So we are thinking of going there next week and it will be like a show down. Should be a blast.

ahhh cool. I always like playing that stupid trivia game for whatever reason, probably because i'm pretty good at it.

HAHA ya I am better at racing games and all. But he is good at that stuff so it should be interesting.
