DIY: Double DIN Aftermarket Navigation Headunit Installed!

GVick87

So I am looking to get one of these when my car comes in, but I am having trouble seeing the difference between the 700, 900, and 90. I see that the 900 and 90 are more expensive, but when I compare features on the pioneer site, they come up as having all of the same features...

Could someone help me out who knows the difference?

I believe the main difference is that the 900 plays DVDs while the 700 only supports CDs.

The 90 is the "Premier" version of the 900. The Premier has high voltage pre-outs and a longer warranty.

The differences between the 700 and the 900/90 are that the 900/90 plays DVDs and the 900/90 also has the MSN Direct tuner which gives you access to gas prices, movie times, weather, and traffic information.


as for the previous question about operating the avics while the car is moving...

that is true that certain operations are blocked out unless the parking break is set (ie the car is not moving). some of these features include entering a destination by address, watching video from DVD or iPod, and changing the main settings of the nav system. there is a way to bypass this but it is not as simple as grounding the parking break wire. check out AVIC411.com for more info.



White370z,

I work for a mobile electronics company and our technician said he was unable to hook up the PAC SWI-PS to the 370z because the wiring information from PAC was inaccurate. says the wire colors were different or something along those lines. can you confirm or deny this and if you confirm it, what was the solution?
