Show off those aftermarket stereo systems!

any one have the Pioneer AVH-P4400BH? if so how do you like it? i think i’m about to order it tonight. i was thinking about the app radio 2, but thinking about the p4400bh instead.

also can you hook up a back up camera?

edit: also anyone this this is a good thing to have? http://www.crutchfield.com/p_541USBCBL/PAC-USB-Extension-Cable.html

 

Plus this guy ships fast, got em within 5 days on standard shipping

 

hey guys, crutchfield says that i can’t have a fold down face. they won’t work with the tacoma is this true?

the p4400BH says it’s a “6.95" motorized touchscreen with multi-angle adjustments” so will this not work?

 

It is an excellent head unit. I got the 8400, but almost the same thing with a few fancy but unnecessary features.

Yes, you can hook up a camera, even the stock one if you have one.

That extension is a waste IMO. IF you get the 4400 AND the iPod cable, it will have a USB connection on the cable you can connect to.

Ignore that note from Crutchfield, it will fit, I guarantee it. Hundreds of members have that unit, it fits fine. May require a little trimming depending on the dash kit you get and the way you install it, but thats usually not needed. (and I mean trimming of the kit, not the radio)

 

ok thanks a lot! i don’t have the stock back up camera (i have an ’07) but i want to add it.

and ok, i was wondering because i want to keep my ipod charged up on the road. or my iphone. ipod will be in glove box or center console.

and i figured that it would work, just wanted to make sure before i order it and it did not work.

 

what kind of headrest monitors do you have? they look great!

 

Updated my Pioneer X930BT to the newer firmware on the X940BT today and gained new maps, AND native Pandora Radio functions via my bluetooth connected Android I love this radio!






After that I pulled my sub box out from behind my rear seat. It's been making a horrible noise, like the sub was bottoming out... So I pulled the sub out of the box to take a look and see if I could see anything physically wrong with it. The sub looked fine, but upon inspecting the box I noticed that I had literally blown it apart!!! The Kicker CVT 10" in it moved so much air it popped the back of the box completely off on one side despite the staples and glue the box was put together with... So I ran some 2" screws into it and resealed it, put the sub back in it and reinstalled it into the truck, and I'm SO glad that's all it was and not a blown $80 speaker, LOL. Sounds AMAZING again!






Next project, door speakers! Might order the adapters tonight and then all I'll have left to get are some rear door speakers. I have some Rockford Fosgate Punch

$120 P1694 Punch 6"x9" 4-Way Coaxial Full Range Speakers - Black (Pair)

P1694 6x9's for the front already.

Also plan on making an amp rack to take the amp off the floor and also trim the factor panels that go on the back of the cab so they can be reinstalled around the sub box and amp for a little cleaner look. Not that I ever see it as it is right now, but it looks a little sloppy right now when somebody asks me "what's back there?" and I have to lean the seat forward and show them all that bare sheet metal, lol.

 

How does the garmin based navi work on your pioneer unit? Is it similar to the portable gps units? I have read you now have to pull over to input navi choices?? Im trying to decide on a replacement for my factory hu in my 08. Time to get out of the stone age and get some good sounding tunes! Been looking at the Pioneers and Kenwoods because they both use garmin navi data.

 

Actually, the navigation in the X series like I have is Navteq, not Garmin. Before I had this unit (or the Pioneer D3 before it), I was using a stand alone Garmin GPS unit, and I really came to like the Garmin navigation, but this Navteq power navigation seems to perform equally well. In my opinion, better than having to use a cell phone's GPS via Google Maps or something. Use to always piss me off so bad because I would be trying to use the GPS on my phone going somewhere where I've never been, and right when I get to a point where I have to make a lot of turns onto roads, someone calls me and I get lost...

If installed by the book, they don't allow you to mess with he navigation while driving, nor do they let you play a DVD unless the vehicle is in park... However, with Pioneer units, it's EXTREMELY easy to bypass for FREE just by moving a wire in the harness and grounding it.

If you go with Pioneer, check out the AVIC411 forum; TONS of helpful info in there about pretty much any Pioneer double din radio, as well as how-to's on hacking and modifying them

 

What flip-up head unit is this?

 

I ordered front and rear sets from him last night, so those should be in this week. Not sure if I'll go ahead and put the fronts in since I already have the 6x9's, or if I'll just wait until I get the matching 5 1/4's for the rear and do them all at once

I was going to wait before I put anything in until I got a small 4 channel amp, but I noticed yesterday that this Pioneer X930BT outputs 50watts per channel, so we'll see how that works out first.

 

It's a VALOR....I went cheap because I kind of went past the days of having $4000 systems in my rigs...
Valor ITS-703W - I got it for $155.00...been working excellent for 5 years though

I miss my expensive loud as hell systems but with kids now, i have to wait until I get extra cashola for me then I will build it up

 

That looks absolutely beautiful. How does the system sound? Are the vocals clear or overpowered by the subs?

 

waiting on my 4400BH to come in the mail i hate waiting for stuff to come in the mail.

also question, how do i wire it so i can have full use of it driving?(by pass the parking brake) not saying i will be playing with it, but a front seat passenger may.

 

nice! and like how you added tweeters in the rear.

i’m thinking about 2 10” kicker CVR’s for behind my back seat.

 

Access cab sub box I built. Two 10 inch JL's. 760 watt amp. Fun fun

 

dammm... is the box ported? is the amps below the window line how much power? full setup break down and where did you get the seats?? I wanted to do something exactly like this but settled for a box and not a custom mold.

 

The box is ported through the center console. And I'm not exactly sure on everything that is in there. All I know is you can't breathe in there and it turns quite a few heads! If you want answers to your questions you can contact my brother on his instagram @onthegoaudio He can answer any question about this truck. I'm just whoring some pictures around for him.

 

What do you guys charge for the new X4500BT?
