The 2011 models will be nothing short of stellar and a fair step up from previous 9140/9960/8120s. They are certainly out to impress and doing a great job achieving that goal. Anything more, you'll have to wait til Jan. 6th.

Don't get discouraged though, you bought an excellent unit that I am quite sure will keep you happy for some time.

Is there any information on these anywhere?

Only most of us direct accounts have any info. So unless someone leaked, then no sir, nothing yet. Jan. 6th Starts CES. I get in on the 3rd, so any info that I *can* share prior to the show start I will surely do so.

Thanks, yeah I don't have a headliner so that's out. The glass will actually block the signal, probably more then the roof would. I was talking to one of my friends that works at a stereo shop, apparentlymhe just put one of these in a few days ago. But he was telling me it doesn't really matter where I put the gps antenna, his is in the dash. Be he was telling me a Sirius antenna is actually more important to have a clear line of sight then XM. considering how poorly my xm works now I propably shouldn't risk keeping it under the dash, we'll see what I come up with.

I figured I should update this, I had started to a few times but decided against it... I am much less irritated now

After far to much time spent installing all these damn parts, I'm probably like 63% done now. I finally just got the steering wheel controls working, the phone buttons still don't but at this point I don't want to be bothered anymore. I did get the rest of them working now and they seem to work well, I'll see once I drive it tomorrow.
The radio interface isn't bothering me anymore, I guess I got used to the delay every time you hit a button. But I'm also not pressing them as often now that I have everything set and all the main controls can finally be accessed from the wheel now so that should help as well.

The only thing left is the backup camera, it still doesn't work but I think the camera is bad, seems the "Check your camera" message was a statement not a question. They are sending me a new one so hopefully I can just plug it in and go. Based on the suggestions in another thread I did get the Reverse interrupt turned on, I had to put the car in reverse and then hit the button. It seems to be saved now but it still doesn't do anything when I put it in reverse, I'll try it again once I get the camera to work and worry about it then
