I am going on vacation this weekend and want to get everything in and installed by friday. Amazon prime is a thing of beauty.

Can someone confirm if i need the "kenwood" ipod cable to make the video and audio go to the unit?

Yes you will for video, but you can stream music without it since you got the BT version!! Also if you ground out the parking brake (green wire) you'll be able to watch dvds while moving!!! If you need help with a wire diagram I can make you a quick ref if need be.

If you could make a wire diagram and pm me or post it on here, so I can look at it, that would be great. thanks, I will let you know if I cant figure something out. I plan on doing this all tomorrow night after I get home from work.

I am hoping I can find the kenwood ipod cable at best buy or somewhere local

im currently selling my 4500BT for $265 shipped

Here ya go put this together today for you...Understand this is for a Nissan 370Z Touring/Sports Model BOSE with NO NAV!!! As you can see I've grounded the PW(GREEN) so that you can play DVD without having the brake on. At your own Risk!!



Also its the KCA-iP202 Cable that's needed to have full function and display.

I have the sports model 370z w/ no bose and no navigation. I assume the wiring will be the same?

No you will need to get this wire harness that does not have the RCA's, but rather just regular colored speaker connects. Metra 70-7552 which is for the non-bose setup.

actually that is what I ordered...the 7552 not the 7553. does this change how you wire it?

I am probably just over thinking it and it will all make sense when I get it here. I just have 2-3 hours of free time to have it all done before my vacation.

Instead of using the RCA's version, yours will have regular wires like all the other ones...so I'll you'll do is just wire the Front & Rear (left & Rigth) Speakers. Just match the Metra 70-7552 same colored speaker wires to the kenwood ddx470 wireharness and you'll be good to go.

Front Left: White+/White Black-
Front Right: Gray+/Gray Black-
Rear Left: Green+/Green Black-
Rear Right: Purple+/Purple Black-



If you need me to make an additional diagram I will.

okay, quick question and i think i will be good to go. I have all the wires accounted for except a brown (mute) wire and a yellow/blue (steering remote control) wire. do I just leave these unconnected or what?

When I put my radio in my last car, I believe the yellow/blue is for the amp to turn it on, I am I right?

and the brown, I just leave capped since there is already a bluetooth function?

okay, it is all installed and good to go. just got several questions for people that have a similar unit.

how do I get youtube videos to play to the unit? I have the ip202 cord and it just plays sound?

what are other ways of playing video to the unit?

Pressing the app button will help access Netflix, YouTube.......also you can burn a video or pictures to a cd and them insert to snap a still image for the background image and the deck.
