Default Here are the final pics of the Navigation...

Pardon my camera it doesnt take good pics in the dark. Here is the Brain unit which connects almost everything to the NAV unit. Everything is run under the carpet and side walls and comes up through a nice slit in the carpet. Ipod is attached with a Belkin car kit holder that i shaved the end off of and mounted it to the wall.

There is the inside by the cd changer. Ipod adaptor is mounted under the changer, all wires, cigerette adapter is neatly wired in this compartment. All out showing you what is in there.

Here is a pic of the actual unit in action. I added some background pics you can notice to the audio mode from which the ipod plays. I can play the ipod and have my nav dvd in at the same time. This unti has so many features its rediclous, i havent touched the surface yet and im amazed.

I know the face plate isnt sitting flush, the pioneer unit is very big and wont fit all the way back, this weekend or after florida we are making a custom plate to sit flush. Just a little tedious job. Sorry no pics of the xbox, i have it up here right now copying games over to it. What do you guys think?

Default Looks good!! One thing I'd critique...

...why not mount the iPod cradle to that left part of the CD changer bracket? It would keep the Pod safe from stuff in the trunk and concealing it is mo' better, IMO. Other than that, it's grrrrreat!!

Default Its here for convience...

I can easily take it in and out in 2 seconds, instead of opening and closing that compartment door all the time. This way i can show it off too I usually never carry anything in the trunk so i dont have to worry about it.

Default Didnt have the double din space to compensate for one..

I have the concert I instead of the symphony limiting my options. I would have went with the NAV+ if i had the symphony, but the AVIC N2 offers so much more, like dvds, ipod adapter, and my xbox hook-uo, not to mention its touch screen.

Is that a vehicle specific trim kit or general DIN trim ring?
