I use the Nano with mine.

NOTE: you have to buy a separate cable --the unit only comes with a USB cable ... REPEAT, buying an separate cable is necessary ...

Otherwise I love the unit, but 2 cords is a little hassle

I ran the cable underneath the shift-**** console, into the arm rest cubby.

Yup, just plug your flash drive drive into the USB cable.

I tried that, but they it doesnt seem to read any video files. I've tried avi, wmv and divx, neither being recognized

Also do you just use factory brackets to mount this stereo or do you need special brackets?

I just got this unit 2nd hand but the lime green wire that is suppose to be run to the ebrake is not in the harness. Im assuming you can just place a new wire in its place on the harness but im not sure which hole on the harness it is? does anyone happen to have the pinout and could tell me which one it would go to??

connect it straight to the ground with a switch in between. Use the switch to unlock the screen when watching DVDs, etc...
