Yeah pics please!!
I found a great price on this unit at Costco...
Also, what dash kit and wiring harness did you use??
I want to do the hack and install of this unit on my '07.
Also want to add the Bluetooth and ipod cable so if you have pics of those as well that would be cool

pgn29 congrats on the new head unit, quick question on the bluetooth, not sure if you had the bose with bluetooth from factory, were you able to keep the steering wheel controls?? for track/volume and also phone functionality?
if anyone knows that this can be done i would greatly appreciate any info.
Thanks

just got mine installed yesterday man this unit is sick. I love it already and havent even had much time to play wiith it. I went with the scoshe dash kit they said it was a little harder to install witht he mororized unit. But i think it looks awesome. Almost looks stock if it wasnt so bad *** lol. Ill post pics of my full install tomorrow sometime. i would highly recommend it if you have the money.

get on avic411.com everything you need to know is in the stickies there. Its a two wire bypass and you burn a cd from your comp and download an update to the unit itself i did it works great.

z2
z2 has many output options.the map info is stored on 20 gigs of the hard drive so not only can you be using the nav with voice command you can also watch dvd or when you put any cd in the drive it automatically gets ripped to the hard drives libary.there is a bypass that needs to be performed but it very simple.i have one and think its great
