I Just ordered mine today I live in Hawaii so heat not working wont be a problem right now.
Now I need to order my Radio rx8guy86 how do you like the Pioneer Avic-D3 I was looking at getting that same model or getting the Alpine IVA-W200.
I Like that the Pioneer has a volume **** instead of buttons and that you can change the light to match the car lights.

Looks like there are a few version of that kit from Kanatech of Japan

You better ask corksport about the flush unit since that looks a little cleaner



Here is the link to their site

Yes, you have to move the mute wire in the harness and ground it along with the e-brake wire.

Yes, it is a zenclosures box. It fits perfect and sounds amazing!

Did you hook the Vehicle Dynamics Display from the Pioneer AVIC -D3 how is it.
If you did hook it up was it hard what wire did you have to splice into from and where are they located. I going to try to buy my AVIC-D3 next week and want to be ready to install.


Thanks

Actually, in the corksport wiring harness, there is a wire for the speed sensor. Its a pink wire.

in the A/V wiring harness there is a yellow mute wire. You have to pull it out ( which is very easy to do) and move it to a row up. Then you ground it along with the ebrake wire. Then BAM! you have video while your driving..

After driving to destin florida, I realize why they have it setup to not be able to use it when the car is in motion... Watching Van Wilder II was quite the distraction...haha specially on the ( * )( * ) scenes
