Introduction:
This is an autotoys.com installation. One of several
hundred by the staff of autotoys.com
This article is a sample of knowledge gained by working on real
cars for over 18 years.
Online for over 10 years, when you buy a product from us,
we give you real support when you need it.
Instant access to answers through our customer forums. With thousands
of customers, avoid delays, errors and miscalculations in your
installation.. buy from autotoys.com - your outlet for car audio,
car alarms and auto accessories.
Products:
If you have an interest in any of the products
in this article, everything featured (electrical tape, connectors,
radio, alarm, wire ties, rca cables, diodes, screws --- everything is available 'now' (FOR SALE!) through our storefront).
Remember, there may be many manufacturers out there who sell similar
products as the ones featured in our articles, but if you want
a problem-free smooth professional install, your only guarantee is to buy the same parts we use (see our storefront).
Any slight difference in any of the parts and your install is
ruined (plus you won't have access to our post sale support or
forums). Especially important for alarm, radio and OEM changer
products.
Sales People (be careful!)::
Everyday, we get dozens of requests through
our chat & ticket support system, request for forum passwords,
questions on installation problems or questions. We can only focus on questions from our customers. The questions are simple..
the answers are simple - but these people, because they did not
buy from AUTOTOYS.COM cannot get an answer. Dont make a mistake
by buying through auctions, fly by night operations or new pop
up websites who are just a voice over the phone (a sales person)
with absolutely NO EXPERIENCE.
No experience installing in cars, no experience what-so-ever!
They barely know the products they sell! Don't make that mistake!
Make sure your purchase is from autotoys.com. These articles are
proof we know what we are doing and that we WORK IN CARS! We work on the newest cars with
the newest products.

HONDA ODYSSEY FLIP DOWN MONITOR WITH IN DASH DVD PLAYER. 8 INCH WITH AUX INPUT AUDIO ADAPTER
Here is like the "5th" Ody install we done in the whole entire term life of the Ody. We were the first to put 10 inch screens in it in previous tech articles, first to do an alarm, first to modify the bulbs, FIRST to change the speakers out in ODYs because the factory speakers were 'crap', etc. Now we feature a 8 inch package. WHY??? Because we are going to sell you THIS PACKAGE (including ALL THE SCREWS, connectors, wires, etc) in ONE BOX if you want to try it yourself. This van belongs to one of our UPS drivers.
Lookout for our NEXT HONDAY Odyssey Article as we tackle a REMOTE START and Alarm in a 2004.5 Ody EXL with RES (staff member vehicle). We also show you how to add XM to the van, how to feed the sound and where to put the antenna. We'll even show you how to interface the power sliding doors with the remote start/alarm system. WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO BUY YOUR PRODUCTS FROM? MAKE SURE IT IS AUTOTOYS.COM <--- Tell your friends.
HONDA AUX ADAPTER INTERFACE CAN BE BOUGHT HERE
