I have to agree with everyone here, that is an excellent install!

I have an iPhone too, and I think I will eventually upgrade my Alpine CD/MP3 deck to another Alpine but with A/V and iPhone compatibility.

Here's a quick video of the setup. audio is a bit out of sync don't know WTF happened during encoding:

Looks good D.

That must be a pain opening the glove box each time you want to change channel.

What software do you use to get the movies to your Ipod? I have some that I use now but not sure if it is the best. Movies can some times be a bit grainy.

Cheers

Actually I probably won't use the TV a lot so I don't mind it being hidden away. I prefer to listen to music or if needed watch all the stuff I've got for the iphone (even when I watch TV shows they're generally not live and don't have ad's).

I use handbrake, absolutely rules for creating ipod/iphone content DivX and whatever else you need.

I'm thinking that when I start commuting in the stag that I best get an iPod dock installed.

I have the iPod Nano (3rd gen), wonder if you can get docks to suit them?

I like the idea of having it mounted in the front ashtray and hooked up to the stero and tv for h.264 playback.

Anyone know a place in Sydney that could do this fitout?? Crankin' Car Audio??

There are lots of docks available. I found them all while looking for my solution. In the end the boys here ordered a cable form Melb so I didn't need to get one from overseas like I thought. The cable I got will also charge the phone as that was important to me (being a phone and all). I beleive it is universal and will work with all ipods. The cheaper ones don't charge. I went with the cable becuase I got them to build a dock in the ashtray but Andy bought himself a nice dock that doesn't require any fitted attaching to anything (just clips on) - he's using a similar cable to mine.

yep they used a cable from stinger. they are a decent cable to use and quite generic. its when you want control that things change..

bisebee ,

$3-400. depending on the time I spend on it. that said I can probably do it here if I had the entire panel to work with.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
