Also a side note if you are farther than 3 hours away and are still wanting me to do an install, look for other people in your area that may want one done as well. This way it will be cheaper, the more people you get the cheaper it will be, for hotel flight and all. "Just a thought"

Another PM sent to ya. Looking forward to the install.:tiphat:

This is some really really nice work :)

just one question tho. since I've never done any audio things
I was wondering what are those Dynamats used for?

They help eliminate road noise and some vibration, the only down side it adds weight.

ooooh I guess I get it :p
that's pretty cool then :D

Ya it works pretty well I have used it in my civic makes it sound nice and quiet inside.

Bump another install tomorrow a Subaru legacy

Bigaudiofanat-

Would appreciate some guidance here...the car is not 350/370z...

Just hooked up backup camera on DNX6140...black/red on the camera to black/red on the car...red on the camera to red on the car...where do I connect purple/white wire from HU (tagged as reverse switch)? black/red again? I noticed that you connected it to orange in Z...not sure what circuit that is.

TIA

Yes in the trunk on the left hand side there is a big plastic tube with wires in it. Look in there for a orange wire splice to insulation off that and wrap your purple wire around that. Than wrap it with electrical tape. You should be good to go. Also that red wire that is built in on the yellow wire do not worry about connecting that one. I have no idea what it is for and why it is there is beyond me. The red wire you hook up your power to should be switched not constant.

Thanks for the quick response.

Is it orange wire in all cars? Remember the car is not 350/370z

Oh I am sorry I though it was a Z. My fault What car is it?

04 Toyota Camry

I am not sure off the top of my head have not done one in that car. Will have to get back to you. Sorry for that. I am looking around for it as you read this.

Thank you-

Fyi...purple/white is not connected anywhere now- on DNX6140, if I press and hold Nav, camera comes on, and when I shift to reverse, the picture goes away.

Where do you have your green wire connected? Is it connected to ground? If not ground that green wire.

So I did a reinstall on a system. Had a lot to do Enjoy!

I got the green wire grounded already.

Hmm than it should let you see the video from the camera. Or it might be waiting for a signal from that reverse wire. But I am not sure. So you are sure the revers purple wire is not hooked up to anything? Also do you know how to use a volt meter? He is what I am thinking you should do. Go to your tail lights look at the owners manual on how to replace a backup light bulb. Take the light bulb fixture out and look at the wires. One of them has to be +. Find out which one by using the volt meter or just trying them one by one with the purple wire. Once you have found which one it is. Find it in one of the other areas and tap into it. I think you should be able to find it that way.

Everything works fine now...connected red wire from camera to red on HU, purple/white from HU to red/black (at back up bulb) and left red/black from camera unconnected...I was trying to connect it somewhere all this time.

Your advice definitely helped...thank you very much.

No problem man. I am glad that it worked out for you. Props for getting it done right.

Hope to get a few more installs before winter. Will have one or 2 posted here by the end of the month.

So my dad owns a 2008 BMW R1200RT motorcycle and he hats the electronic controlled fuse system. If you over load the circuit that it is programed for than it shut power off to it BMW calls it cambus. So he wanted to be able to add whatever he wanted to the bike without worrying about that. So I installed an aftermarket fuse block that has both switched power and constant ones as well. Enjoy the pics!

can you mount a fuse holder on the side of the battery? I've seen a few pics here of the fuse holder but most of the battery has a plastic cover on it. Mine doesn't have it. Will the battery heat up on long trip and cause the plastic holder to melt or whatever? Thanks for the help!

Well the plastic holder is not on all cars. On ones that do not have it I usually make a custom bracket to hold it. The plastic cover is nothing more than a cover, the battery is not going to heat up from there not being one. Sorry for the delay. Also yes one can be mounted as long as there is a cover. No cover means you can not mount one on the side.

Matt you are a pro. I just looked at some of your work, sweeeet. :tiphat:

Thanks man!
