You are correct, I apologize I haven't forgotten. I ran into some problems while burning and have been tending another [computer software] forum for several days of assistance/support/troubleshooting. I think I have the problem resolved and will post soon, certainly by this weekend.

I also have some double-layer DVDs coming tomorrow which will help with some capacity questions.

How about seeing the details screen while in motion. Is the nav hack necessary for that?

Has anyone received their group-buy iPod adapters?

If you installed it, how did it go?

Just a few minutes ago, I got a UPS tracking number showing a Monday delivery for this part.

Same here - got the tracking number in email a few minutes ago, but the actual package shipped notification probably won't hit UPS website until later this evening.

More picture of the Menu. I still have to learn about the menu screen, but work like the factory nav system....



Does the pic above dispell the rumor that our headunits do not do CD text with the VAIS???????????????

My question is does it display that screen while the car is in motion or is the Nav Hack required for that?

I see you're getting ready for the install!

Based on your "thumbs-up" in the nav hack thread I'm assuming you already did the hack. I'm anxiously awaiting your experience. My new SGM 250AWD, ML, Lux, Parking is arriving right after July 4th. I might install the Vais in the dealer's parking lot!

Does anyone know if getting this Ipod wiring harness integration interfere with Vaistech's video integration to play DVD's for those without ML? (Sorry badly worded and confusing)

In other words, will this interfere with Vaistech's Video harness that is to be out later this year?

Redpaste, Can't help ya there buddy. Might want to e-mail them and check. Would be interesting to find out.

Anyway, Instead of making another useless new thread, I decided to post in here.

Obviously I forgot to take pics again....but I did take a pic of where I put my unit. This is for anyone looking for a easy location to install. But keep in mind, it will make re-installing a bit, harder. Just got to make sure it's shoved as far down and back as possible.

So far so good, I love it.
