    That looks great. I'm very jealous. Is that the metra dash kit?

    There are two files that must be burned unto a cd. One is a txt file and the other is the image file. PM me your email address and I will send you the two files that I used. Once the two files are burned on the cd, the cd is inserted into the AVN726E and when it is done "completed" will show on the screen.

    I guess you can use any image as long as the image has the same properties.

    I tried changing the startup on my AVN726E but everytime I put in the disc and push the disc button it says "no support" on the screen. Am I doing something wrong? How are you guys formatting and burning it onto the CD-R? The original pic was a JPG, but it was changed over to BMP.

    Mine did that until I just left it in there for a while...even after I hear it stop moving...then it worked...try that and let it sit for a bit...post a pic of your start up.

    I'll try that. Did you leave yours on disc, or could did you use the radio while the disc is in? You remember how long it took? I'll post a pic if it works =]

    I just left mine running...didn't press nothing like DISC or SIRUS or etc...

    This is what I did...open where both file is located like Documents for example:

    Highlight both items you want to burn > Send To > DVD RW drive > burn it.

    File size is 1.5 MB. I used the windows DVD program to burn it with a mastered format (data format that can be used in any CD or DVD player)

    I can't get mine to work either. When it says, "8bit" for the file format, is that a special type? I just saved mine as a bmp in MS paint but I didn't have an 8bit option.

    Mine didn't work either.....
    I contacted Eclipse for instructions and the tech adviser told me it would be much easier to email him the files.
    He got my files and is gonna send me a disk.....

    When I get the disc I'll look at the file format and file names and report back on what's on the cd.
