Pioneer AVH-P5900DVD - Got it



  Hondata'd EP3 Type R
Finished early from work today, And the postman ah ddelivered my Pioneer AVH-P5900DVD, And a note from my dad saying " I presume this is a new toy for your car". I didnt expect it, I ordered it about 2pm yesterday from Caraudiosolutions on ebay. I wouldnt normally have ordered from ebay, But I had the money in paypal so. Anyway excellent service, Less than 24 hour postage for £8.99 and the unit was £8 cheaper than RRP.

My first impressions where good, Then i thought b****cks. Every screen I have fitted has hada processor that you fit in the boot and a wiring loom. Which makes it a pain to install, But easy for wiring your RCA's etc. Apart from this is all included, No seperate processor. I've just prder £45 1 metre RCA's which are useless now, But hey.

I decided to fit it, Didnt fit it ALL because Its got to come out for the install.

IT fitted excellently, Didnt need no wiring looms, Although i have lost the steering wheel control which i may purchase.

I also like the new cages where you screw the unit in rather than push it till it clicks.

My biggest issue was space behind the head unit, Cant see how I'm going to get the rcas etc down there, But ill figure it out.

Need to buy an antenna adapter too, I'll pick one up from halfords tomorrow. But all in all, An Excellent product. If i am honest, I find them a bit of a distraction, And have bee ndrivign with the screen closed and just skipping track with the button on the front rather than the touch screen

But a good unit, Should sound better with some SPL Dynamics toys ive ordered :)

No pics, But it looks cool too.

I took out the heater controls, although I suspect this was at least as much work as taking the dash top off 'cos they were a pain in the f**king neck to get back sitting exactly right.

I remember fitting mine. As fred says, dash off is the best way.

Got pics of yours in?

Fubar used to have a top dash removal guide. I followed it first time round and was easy peasy.

Just dont force anything and get ALL the screws out :)

ill get some pics, I've got it all working now, But im going to need to pull it out again to wire my amps in. Its not sitting as flush as i would want, But its in 100%.

Going to have to take bits of the dash off to find more space :D
