Has anyone installed this unit (PA15-HON3) in an Acura TL with Navigation? If so, what year and did it work?!

I installed this in a 2005 TV with Navigation and it works well. It will stick at times but all you have to do is Unplug the IPod and reconnect.

Yes, 2004 Acura TL with Navigation. It works fine for the most part but is not perfect. It occasionally causes the navigation system to reboot. When the nav reboots, it is the same as if the car had been turned off, so it takes a few seconds to come back up. I mostly use the iPod direct mode and select playlists and so on through the iPod itself. I find the playlist/track selection through the factory system slower and more cumbersome than just using the iPod; I also suspect it causes more frequent navigation reboots.

Yes I installed one in a acura mdx it's very easy to install the only issue I had was patch cord for phone was defective . I called usa spec to help trouble shoot it , very upsetting with there customer service. I ended up buying a rca plug with headphone jack and used it that way. But good luck with USA spec .

Hello. No, for Navigation you will need Pioneer's add-on Navigation unit. Thank you.

Gary, I have been researching the same use (snowmobiling) for the nuvi 500. sledgps dot com lists chips available either nationally or by region. The region maps are $50, the national $99. Did you get the 500, and do you like it? I want a crossover/multi mode unit and this one seems to be the only one available. I think the difference between this unit and the 550 is that the 500 has US road and US topo maps, and the 550 has north american roads but no topo maps. I don't know if sledgps maps will overlay on the topo. If anyone has tried this, please reply with info. I have not bought it yet, so can't answer your question directly (I want to be able to though). Finally I am torn on the mixed reviews on the unit. I can handle the missing USB cable, and AC adapter, but has everyone found the unit accurate, both on road and off road? Are the maps updated? Thanks...

Yes it will fit. I used this kit on a 96 acura TL and it worked great. I did however have to modify it a slight bit to fit the headunit I was using but everything else worked great. This kit lets you use aftermarket double din headunits in the Honda/Acura setup. Generally all the honda double din headunits from 1990-2002 all use the same mount setup so if your car is a 2002 it should work.

Answer from Titantech: Does your car have original navigation? It cann't support original navigation. Please send us a picture of your dashboard.

No. If you havent bought it then dont. I hate it. It randomly answers the phone even though i have it set to not answer. The touch screen is not easy to navigate through like newer touch screens. Finally my navigation worked great for about a month or so just long enough to not be able to return and went haywire and hasnt worked since. It is NOT worth the cheaper cost. Oh and it took my boyfriend who has installed stereos before, 2 days to make it fit and go in my RAV4.

Hi, I installed this unit myself and went through some hiccup, but overall it is quite an interesting experience. If you own an Nissan Altima 2011 with manual AC, you will be happy with its look. For radio signal, you need to buy another antenna adapter for Altima 2007to 20012 from Metra on Amazon. Connect the blue wire from that adapter to red wire of black connector provided with the unit. For GPS signal, you need to find allocation for it. I placed it into middle vent with face up to the dash. This location work out real we'll for me. It pick up GPS signal much quicker and get more satelites. I am so happy with it now! After that you just take time to set its features which suite you best. I would reccomend this unit for factory look of Altima and price also.

I actually purchased three 3790s, to upgrade the older units in my cars. All work great - no issues. You need to do a software upgrade and a map upgrade, since these are "older" units that don't have the latest updates. Takes about an hour to complete. Just make sure you get the LMT version.

Hello,I just got a 1490T. Please excuse my ignorance, but I decided on that unit for the traffic feature as I commute over 35 miles each way. Thing is, I can't find a description anywhere that tells me what I need to do to have access to just the traffic info i.e. do I need to have the GPS active even when I don't need it - I know how to get to my office, for example. I'm a bit confused......Regards,Barry

you must have the factory satellite radio harness. Check your radio for a sat button or ptty button if not get the pa15-niss. When its all hooked up its fantastic

I googled it for my 2006 Mazda 3i and a video came up of some guy installing it step by step through his dash. It looked fairly simple. He was in another country I think but explained it perfectly. I just haven't had the time to install mine yet lol. Hope this helps you!

You will also need to buy a gmos 100 interface. It acks as your wiring harness. I personally liked the way my bose stero sounded before the install. You cant use your factory navigation anymore but if you have a smart phone you can use your phones gps through bluetooth. Or if you have a compatible phone that is integrated with the head unit, you can hook up a usb cord to mirror the image off of your phone onto the head unit. Anymore questions feel free to ask.

Sorry to hear that. I have a '98 Toyota Avalon w/factory stereo - the unit works flawlessly. Is there some problem with your lighter?
