HOW-TO Install AVIC-D3 w/out Shaker (LOTS OF PICS!!!)

Boozshey · 01-19-2008, 07:22 PM

I bought the dash kit and wire harness from Circuit City.
Not sure of the part number, just ask them for it, they will know.

THIS IS A WITHOUT SHAKER INSTALL!!!
For a shaker install goto http://www.mustangforums.com/m_4469990/tm.htm

Tools:
Solder Iron
Heat gun/Hair Dryer
Razor
Philips Screwdriver
Small Flat Dead Screwdriver (smaller the better)
Pliers
Wire Cutters
Wire Strippers

Materials:
Wire Coat Hanger
Solder
Heat Shrink Tubing
Electric Tape
Wire Coat Hanger
Zip Ties

Sorry no peanut butter in this one...

THE NEXT 2 ARE THE BYPASS STEPS!!!

Use a small small flat head screwdriver on the side of this and lift the little flap to pull out the wire...

Don't forget to hook up the wires to the center panel...

What about the backup signal wire

Didn't install a camera so no need... When I get around to that (in a year or so) I will add to it...

I didnt wire the reverse signal eiher for the Z1, i was to lazy to find the wire and didnt think that the navigation really needed to know that i was going 25 feet in reverse

Wow that is an impressive write-up. How-Tos like this are my favorite part of the forum. Mucho thanks. I can only hope the moderators see fit to make this a sticky.

Don't you need a part from radio shack to knock the 12v AVIC-D3 preamp feed down to 5v? If you have a shacker system
