PIONEER AVIC-Z110BT 2DIN INDASH AV/GPS/BLUETOOTH NEW 09
Price seems very good. Checking seller's feedback, looks like he sold at least like 6 of them and customers are happy about it.

If anyone has this done, first off, where did you tap for the speed sensor (wire color and location) and also, can you tap into the existing nav antennas vs running a new wire for a new antenna?

These kinds of threads almost always go nowhere. The original posters almost never comes back or posts pics. When i get my car back from Eurocharged im going to take the plunge and post a full review.

Alright just went to see progress and they killed the battery...they have been working on it since Friday morning.. It looks like the din kit was missing the cage and some extra trim which they threw together and it does not help eith curvature of the panel which I will show u guys when I get it home. The other thing is the camera looks huge in the rear but I might change it latter as soon as smaller more oemnlooking one comes out. They have installed the blue tooth mic right next to my radar detector and tell me that's the best place for it? They also did the DVD hack in the rear so it plays when driving... I am typing this on my iPhone so i am sorry how terrible the typing is-- dam auto text!!!
More to come latter-- I got bronchitis this weekend and feel like ****e!!!

I have been trying to wait to show everyone till its completely finished...
Basically the schrosh kit you can get, the only kit they sell currently really sucks...Plus the had to custom a kenwood kit for the cage and surround around the radio to make it look right.
They could not figure how to get the illumination wire connected correctly and finally got a solution to it which I have to go back again because it is wired to my parking lights and not my headlights. Basically this is what dims the radio at night otherwise you get a suntan at night.
The camera is not my favorite. I bought the really nice pioneer one thinking it was going to be smaller but noope...So I will probably get the license plate one but be careful and not get the plastic ones as they leak water and are not as good.
They tried to hide the antenna for me too for the gps and sat radio and used the the stock antenna for radio...Well the radio does not work as great and they are going to have to mount the sat radio antenna on the dash or outside to keep a constant signal...
One last thing I found out...The secret compartment or your 6 disc changer drawer does not work without the stock radio..>I dont know why but we took it apart to see and the motor wont kick open the drawer with the new radio in?
The pac steering wheel control right now only works the volume and thats it...I think we are going to try and get it to use the phone functions but at this point it looks like its a ***** to program...The nav and radio does not appear in the cluster
The best part of the install is where the installed my amp...The put in on the the rear deck upside down in the trunk..>I will show pics of all of this when its done...BUt its out of the way and has plenty of cooling.
The car has upgraded focal speakers which sound good but its missing the bass portion...I have already got them to run a sub RCA as well so that we can get one 10 or 2 8's hidden in the back somewhere...Where is the question and I going to hold out on that for a min.
So, long story short...Still in progress and I did not really want to show till its done...

I have never been excited over the image quality of license plate cameras so I'm curious how yours turns out. On my last car I used a nice all metal unit off Ebay for $80 which was xlnt, OEM appearance, distance lines builtin, and fit snugly under the trunk lip, need to check to see if it would fit nicely on the 'G'

Is that the only din kit will fit our W211? They all have a gap on the bottom?
