Ok heres the deal!!!!
I spoke to a gentleman today and I am setting up an account tommorow. Please do not repeat the info I post to them or they might shut us down. I am going to be able to get the single input unit for $325.00 and the duel unit for $355.00 now this is not installed at all and does not include shipping. I am not sure what is involved but I was told it is plug and play (or pray quite posible). This is ONLY for the RTL w/ NAVI. I would say that it does not involve a FM modulator for the sound input. Hey it might. They will not do any necassary evils with me till I fax the dealership info. I have a RTL Navi Ridge with a Honda RES system. If you are familiar it is by Alpine. The poor thing is it sounds off through a FM modulator. Nice freakin' going Honda. I have the DVD and the backup camera system. I was told they both work with the system just fine.
AS A SAFETY NOTE:
Driving with a TV in the front dash is not safe. It is a smart thing to wire the power wire with a Ford inertia switch. They cost about 20 bucks and if you get into an accident because of the navi-tv unit, and you have wired the power wire with this inertia switch the unit will do a auto shut down and the police will not know it was there. This way they can not blame the front tv sytem as the cause of the accident. Just your piss poor driving.
To give you a backround about me since I am new here. I have been with American Honda Motor company since 1988. I started as a Honda tech. I reach Honda Platinum level and went to Honda top Gun one year. I am and still keep current, my ASE Master with L1 and machine shop certs. I raced contengency with Honda for 4 years with the CRX Si and won 3 regional championships. I was asked to go on board with AHM engineering department in 1999 in which the owner of the dealer became aware and counter offered me with a Service Manager position. I have been with the same dealership since 1988. I am now in charge of Full operations of the dealership, service department, IT and IN administrator department and just about anything else you cna think of but sales and parts. I am Vice president of the south Florida parts and service club and am on the board for AHM's PACT Training and education program. I have been involved in many TSB and three Product Updates.
As you can see I am very serious when it comes to Honda. I steered away to Honda for a truck because they had no trucks. As soon as Honda came out with one I bought it.
I have no problem buying these units if they work out and moving the savings onto you guys. I have a long standing PayPal.com account and can easily do business that way (cash, credit cards ...). Give me a few days and the details will be worked out. I am in the middle of getting a Fiber line run under the road to the buildings we bought on the other side of the street to expand our business. Tomorrow I will be in meetings with the owners about the project.
I will test out the unit in my own truck and than post the details of what is involved and the cost.
