Default Successful AVIC-Z1 Install

Some audio shop wanted $500 for my system install and $350 for my navigation install. Looks like I saved myself $850.

Looks good. How does it sound? Is this the HU with the 6 disk dvd changer built in? What is the thing hanging off the roof? Microphone for bluetooth?

No, this is the 30 gig built in HD. That's a microphone for voice commands. It sounds incredible.

They sound great, very precise responses. Almost too much bass for my liking, I would have been happy with one 12" Type R.

I know my trunk is messy I'll wrap the wiring up, I just finished the installation yesterday. Could wait to show you guys.
