    Pioneer FH-P8000BT install

    Sounds good! I did also upgrade the speakers all around at same time, but haven't amped yet. But you should be happy with the whole kit. I'd imagine you'll have a bit of extra IPBUS cable though, so when you're planning out installation, expect to have to hide a bundle of it somewhere. Keep...

    Pioneer FH-P8000BT install

    No problem at all, man. There are 2 ways to get AUX-in, actually... the 3.5mm jack you see on the back is one, but you can also get RCAs in with an IP-BUS adapter. I was using the RB10, but there's also ways to hack the bus and make your own connections...

    Pioneer FH-P8000BT install

    Yeah, it's just one of the 3 buttons on the left-hand side of the display... the bottom one I believe. Hold it for 3 seconds or so and it alternates control. If the iPod's playing already, it'll pause for a second, but then pick right back up once control is switched. And I agree- i think...

    For me, the selling points are: - Bluetooth on-board - Fitment issues (I thought the Scion units may require slight modification of the center console to fit properly) - RF interference. Since I'm using mine with iPhone now, the previous setup I used was an AUX input through an older Pioneer...

    Pioneer FH-P8000BT install

    It seems to be faster than previous generations... but to be honest, the reason I did this same install was because of the 'passenger-control' option that the new Pioneers give you. You can control it through the HU, OR control it through iPod directly. The direct control is my preference, as...

    Pioneer HU

    Also interested in this... looking to swap out my current single-DIN Pioneer for this guy. I don't think there should be any gotchas here, but if I get mine installed first I'll take pics, etc...
