Considering Upgrading Pioneer Avic x920BT to the Z140BH question...
 

Hello all..

I asked this question on avic411.com a few weeks ago and havent gotten a reply.. Maybe someone here will know the answer...

I currently have a Pioneer Avic x920BT installed in my 2009 370z. I have the bypass done, a rear view camera, and the Metra ASWD hooked up. I was wondering if I were to upgrade to the Pioneer Avic Z140BT, could I simply just plug and play swap the two headunits with the Bypass and ASWD still working? or will have I to reprogram the ASWD and the redo the bypass on the newer z1140BH harness?

Thanks in advance.

I think at the very least you may have to rewire the bypass, at the most rewire the bypass and reprogram the metra. Same harness though.

I don't know about pioneer specifically but I know for sure that similar model year kenwoods will allow you to do this DeEePiDDy. I used to buy kenwood exclusively for this reason. I could upgrade within a couple years and just unplug one radio and pop in the next. Same mounting brackets and everything. Good choice though. I like pioneer heads. I had a real nice single DIN in my 3000GT. Very good sound quality and simple enough to use without an electronic engineering degree. I just bought a head from China (taking the leap of faith). I researched it well before I bought it and I am super pleased with it. It has all of that out of the box. SWC included. It's pretty awesome and the best part is... it is half android and half radio. :tup:

Good luck with the new unit!
