You definitely know your way around a car and it shows! I appreciate the OCD as well! Small world because I actually know a few people who worked at your shop and I live in the same area!

What happened to all the Acura Integra Type S videos? did you take them down?

Hi! Doing same project for my 2007 4s, with Sony xav 6000. Questions: how did you physically connect the 12v constant, 12v switch and ground to the car? Did you use posi tap, strip wire then tap? You did not show this in your video. I’m new to this and would appreciate any help, thank you!

Hello. I ran the inputs from the head units wire harness to the appropriate terminals on the vehicles connectors behind the radio (constant 12v and ground) and to the connector by the passengers footwell (switched 12v). I did not cut or solder, but rather tinned the ends of each wire and just back-probed them into the connectors terminal receptacles. It’s not as secure as using a tap or cutting/soldering, but it prevents any type of hacking of the factory wire harness. I did not want to cut the factory harness at all.

@nsxavier what gauge have you replaced your Sport's Crono clock with please 🙏

Just got a similar radio installed in my cayman. Would you still recommend the 997.1 platform? Been really looking at a 2008 Carrera s.

@NSXavier997

Yes I would recommend the 997.1 platform. I’m not very well versed on the 997’s outside of the Turbo / GT3’s, so you’ll want to do some homework about engine specifics and reliability. I think some early 997’s Carreras were prone to the dreaded IMS failure.

Nice steering wheel, I have 997.1 with the MF steering wheel, still on the edge if I am willing to spend for modern one, but looks amazing. How do you see the upgrade from the previous one to this one? thanks

Anything is better than the factory 997.1 triangle wheel. Both visually and actual feel of it in your hands. The 991 steering wheel upgrade is definitely worth the cost.

I removed the factory ACC socket on the passengers lower kick panel and installed a USB-C bulkhead connector in its place. Turned out pretty clean

Rounders- great flick. Keep up the good work! What seats are those? They look great.

Also, it appears that your MOST box does not have RCA cable-is this needed? my MOST box has red and white rca cables..can u explain, thanks!

@NSXavier997

It does have it. Can’t work without it. It’s not outlined in the video but the RCA cables are plugged into the most converter box and into the SONY head unit via “connector 2”. Connector 2’s location can be found in the head units operating manual.

Hey, one more thing, I see that you wired the neon green wire from the head unit together with the ground, why? Neon green is labeled parking brake..could you comment, please

So that the unit thinks that it’s always in park. This way the HDMI input can work all the time.
