Trick My Truck
#1277
Last time I drove it, I think none of the gauges lit up, but I'll have the wife find out.
I'll also have her check the fuses. Which number is it for the fuse for the cluster?
2, 6, 18?
I think I'll just have her look at all of them and see which one is popped.
Also, when I get back from this deployment, should I get the vehicle fully serviced? How much should it run? Truck has I think 80-82k miles on it.

Installed this the other day, been meaning to take photo's. It's the AppRadio by Pioneer, I find it pretty awesome.
Off:
On:
Mic - it comes with a sticky mount as well, thinking about moving it up more on the steering column.
GPS - it's under the dash board, haven't been able to test it out since I only have a 3GS/
iPhone cord:
I like where the cord for the iPhone is, I can just drop it in the pocket to the left.
The only issue I have now is I need to install a switch to make the head unit think I have engaged the parking brake. I already bought a switch and I want to put it where the cigarette lighter is, what's the easiest way to take that out so I can experiment?

Nice, the appradio is what I'm wanting as well! I just got the avic-u310bt as a gift. As for the emergency brake wire - just tie it in with the stereo ground wire and it always thinks the emergency brake is engaged. That's how I have mine set up and it works great.
One question - since the appradio just uses the gps app from the phone, what exactly is that that you have mounted underneath the dash as a GPS unit?

The AppRadio uses this method for the parking brake:
1. Press parking brake
2. Release parking brake
3. Press parking brake again
Then it'll let you do whatever. So, I have a nice circle rocker switch that fits in the cigarette area.
As for the GPS app, the radio comes with a GPS antenna so give it more strength when driving. I'm assuming in the area's where the phone loses service.
