Just a tip for others. If there is room under your dash near the top you don't have to mount your XM or NAV antenna on the dash. Put it under the dash facing up. On the 350z, I mounted my 5140 NAV antenna right under the middle console gauges. There is a space between the beam, and wire harness and it fit perfect in that spot. Full bars on the signal and it's concealed.
As long as there is no metal between it and the sky the antenna will pass plastic without any problems.

This is the last picture I need to post. I had to move the Blue Tooth Mic out of the location where the OEM Mic was located. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but the Parrot Mic just did not work well there. So it's now located here...

It looks to be at the top edge of the windshield, above the rearview mirror.

Hi Arizona Z,
When you did your install did you hook up the "Dimmer Control Wire"? If so what wire (color) did you hook it to and where did you find it? Also, how about the mute wire, where did you hook that one up to? One other question, the blue wire on the Antenna adapter does this need to be hooked up to anything? If so what and where. Thanks, Willie |

I didn't hook up either of those wires on my install as they were not needed.

Now that I'm getting around the 7140, and have "Mastered" it! I'm tempted to add speakers to it. I have the Bose system now. Anyone with ideas for getting new speakers and keeping the Bose sub? Is this a bad idea?
Thanks A.Z. |

So I have my DDX714 installed and i noticed it takes quite some time to switch tracks. Does anyone else have this problem?
As far as speakers go. Depending on how much work you wanna do you could get a set of two way components or a set of three way (which would be more expensive and more difficult to install). I think a nice set up for you would be to go with some two way components up front and if you want..... you could get some 3 or 4 coaxials int he back. I dont' remember what size they are. You could then use the setting on the receiver to adjust appropriately. I personally have some 3 way components up front no rears and a 12" kicker L7 in the back and i really like how it sounds. This is hooked up to a T1500-1bd mono amp and a T400-4 4 channel amp. I am pretty satisfied with this, but perhaps one day i'll get some rear speakers since i do have the ddx714 and it has those delay capabilities. On a side note....I would strongly recommend a 4 channel amp, there is plenty of space for it underneath the bar that runs across the car. |
