congrats man. good choice on model.......

 

how can I get pricing like this? in florida they wont budge below 30 grand for an enth!!!

 

The demand is more most likely in Fl for a Z than in Delaware.

 

no.. incvoice is less than 26,000 .. so your looking at about 28 OTD

 

That looks great - how did you mount the dock?

Actually, rather than ask piecemeal, if its not too much trouble i would appreciate a rundown of the steps you took for the install.

 

Try Edmunds.com - they give what they call a True Market Value (TMV) that is adjusted based on your area.

 

I mounted the dock... That doesn't sound too good. lol I secured the dock useing the backet provided. I'm at work till tomorrow morning and w/o looking at the car I couldn't give you a step-by-step instruction. What yr is your z again?

Where is your lighter oulet located? Any pics of the dash, center consol, and lighter outlet(s) will help.

 

THe power outlet is located on the left side of the dash on the passenger side - about knee high.

Dash more or less looks like this (my camera is not working):

I did pick up the Roady XT plus the home kit tonight - ran into a guy from college at Circuit City - he is now a manager there - gave me $20 off.

Going to try to install it tomorrow.

 

alright I'm gonna have to do this off of the top of my head.
1) remove the center consol where the shifter is. Use the links I provided earlier.
2) Remove the center dash where the radio and gauges are. Once again refer to links provided.
3) Remove the storage compartment. Drill a hole in the lower center just large enough to run the wiring through. *Note make sure you don't drill where the mount will be place.
4) I place the XM antenna center/above the windshield. You can place it whereever you choose. If you use the same spot run the wire along the passenger side and through/ underneath the dash.
5) Plug in the power cord and run the wiring underneath the dash as well.
6) Connect everything and make sure it works. Remember you might not get a signal if your inside a garage or carport.
7) Reinstall everthing.

I know that is pretty basic but its the best I can do w/o pic to show you or doing it myself. Good luck and keep me posted.

 

Thanks - a friend is coming over the give me a hand with the install either tomorrow or sunday - he put a SkiFi in a Xterra so with your instructions + the tutorials + a bit of experience, we should be good to go.

Bye-bye terrestrial radio...

 

Robert K - thanks for your help - I hooked up the Roady XT today and it looks (and works) GREAT. I actually drilled the center compartment on the lower right so the wires come right up and plug into the XT dock.

We also got the hard wiring kit and hard wired it into the dash power outlet -and it leaves the outlet in the dash open for anything else. The best part about the kit is that the modualtor in it plugs in between the radio antenna and shuts down the FM antenna when the XM receiver is turned on - it eliminates any interference.

We ran the XM antenna under the passenger side door sill and mounted it on the rear strut bar.

The whole thing came out SUPER clean and looks great. Will post pics when i find out where my wife put our new camera.

 

Awesome!!! Glad you got it in and working. Where did you get your hardwire kit from? I couldn't locate any. Can't wait to see the pics!
