Had a customer come in with some Power Acoustic Dual DVD Player Headrests he wanted put in....but he also wanted a way to integrate in his Xbox when needed.
Simple .... I hardwired in a 300 watt Stinger Power Converter and custom mounted a Stinger "Game Plate" in the existing spot where his un-used rear audio controls were.
He was somewhat ok with just having the built in FM Mod for sound throughout the car, but I informed him of iSimple's latest products and he was IN. Now he has crystal clear iPod audio input, as well as a Mini Jack audio input and hardwired DVD audio.
After all the dust settled he can no Listen to songs from his iPod, Listen to the DVD player that is showing off his new Dual 8.5" screens, as well as plug in an Xbox and play video games on-the-go.
Pretty cool road trip upgrade...his kids are going to love it!
Well, it only took us 2 months, but I've finally brought on what I think is the top company for all my mobile video products (minus in-dash DVD and Navigation options).
This company only deals with dealerships directly, so this is what would have came in your car, had you had the option...basically.
Had a close friend's family bring me their 2010 Toyota Sequoia wanting some headrest DVD players.
Got her my 7" Dual Headrest DVD Player options.
Dual 7" Screens in factory matching leather
Dual DVD players
Dual Headphones
Dual Everything
All this hides away like it was stock, and work perfectly.
Hit me up if you want to know more about this awesome brand and what they will look like in your ride!
Been trying to knock out a bunch of projects, as well as keep up with the day-to-day jobs that come in.
Had a friend of a friend come in with a 2005 GMC Sierra pickup.
Wants a DVD player with iPod controls, Bluetooth, Satellite Radio, steering wheel controls and DVD Playback bypass.
Enter the Clarion VX400 coupled with a Sirius Satellite Radio tuner and a PAC steering wheel control interface.
This was a pretty simple install, just alot of wires to be fitted into the dash. After a little weight loss therapy (see last photo below) the DVD Player and all the components fit like a glove!!

Had a customer come in with a AVIC unit that wasn't cooperating...so I decided to assist.
After an hour of troubleshooting, came to the conclusion that the Scosche module to help integrate an aftermarket unit into the stock system was bad. So I informed the customer that I can hardwire it in, but he'll lose the ability to hear his turn signals and chimes throughout the vehicle. Since he was cool with that, we went forward with the install. Once the deck was up and running, we installed the included Bluetooth mic up in the A-Pillar, facing the driver; as well as mounted the included GPS antenna for the built in Navigation up on the dash.
Bypass the X930BT so that it will play video while the unit is in motion. Standard 'ground the parking brake wire' doesn't work with these new units, so you have to figure out how to bypass it AND trick it to think that you AREN'T driving when you really are.....ahh the joy's of electronics!
Customer was happy, install looked great....and...the best part..I got to use my Credit Card app on my Droid......BEST PURCHASE EVER......I can now accept charges with Credit Cards, using my smartphone....it's amazing! Full blown business now.

Had a friend of a friend want to upgrade his already sick Titan.
Threw in a Pioneer DVD player with iPod and SD audio inputs.
Did a custom bypass on the Pioneer's safety setting, so he can enjoy movies while on the go.
Clean and simple install....keep your eye's on the road bud!!
Got a 1996 Dodge Ram Van, putting in a 15" dropdown overhead video screen and dvd player. Kept the stock cassette player, so I wired in an iSimple FM Modulator....everything sounded great and looked very good.
Cheers
Family member got a new vehicle, so we had to start throwing new electronics at it.
New JVC Touchscreen DVD player with bluetooth, iPod, aux and a boatload of other options. Sat Radio is temporarily mounted on dash (will be getting a hidden unit soon).
Cheers!
The Bypass of Video that took place on the Pioneer AVH-P4300DVD unit was for Chingy's Audi A4....got the unit in and he loves it....cruises through his iPod pretty good actually. Next for the Audi? Backup Camera, pre-wire for the amp and sub system we'll be doing, and auxilary input for other people that are against Apple like I am :)
Till then!
So, instead of bypassing the Pioneer DVD players you most people do (by adding a switch on their dash somewhere) you can simple add a relay to it...and BAM...you're done!
So this way, the Pioneer will automagically bypass the stock DVD playback setting everytime instead of having to flick a swtich!
Cheers
Didn't get much time on this one tonight, but I got started on the tear-down.
There is a lot more room in these bad-boys when you take out the center console! I'd put a sub in there if it was me (Bose actually does do a little rinky-dink woofer in there, just not this model). Putting in a 16" overhead video screen with a seperate detached DVD player in the center console, with wireless headphones, IR remote control, and the sound will play through the stock stereo through a hidden integration unit that will also allow the owners to use their Bluetooth's on their iPhones....just like they would be able to as if it were stock!
It's also good to know that I can fit a full sized SUV and the beater into the shop!
Cheers
