z28dreams Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Has anyone that's ordered one of these in the DC area? I'm considering buying one but would want some assistance installing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFloyd Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 A little mid week update. I've had a little problem ordering pcb's (they were not able to take my credit card number ????) but now everything is ok. It may induce a 2 days delay before I will receive the boards.

Super_Estevez Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Received the package yesterday! I'll be installing later this month once this whole wedding thing winds down! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhig Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 As did I, I won't have time to install it this weekend though . I was praying to get it by Friday because of the holiday weekend but what can you do. I can't wait to get this puppy installed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lekmedm Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I got mine last Saturday, but I didn't have time to do anything with it yet. I'll chime in with a review once it's in. Thanks Sebastien! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esm Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I got through most of the installation thanks to some late evening help from Sebastian (the WRX deck is slightly different than the Legacy deck, internally). Sebastian, thanks for the help, and for making these available! I'll hopefully have the whole thing back together tonight for testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esm Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 And to follow-up, it works perfectly. Sebastian, you made my wife very happy. The supplied 3.5mm male-to-male cable protruded just a bit too far in my configuration to snake out the side because of where I stuck the Leptronix board to the AM/FM module; as a warning to others, try test-fitting everything before you actually stick the board to the AM/FM module to make sure you've mounted it in a good place for all wires to clear properly. For my own purposes, I just cut a hole in the rear heat sink right behind the Leptronix board, so both new wires can come straight out; that also makes it very easy to replace the audio cable without disassembling the radio. In auto mode, it switches over to the aux input almost instantly when you start playing something. There's a 15-30 second delay switching back, which is reasonable (you don't want it to just randomly switch back to the radio, because you're between songs). When physically switching from radio to aux and back again, it's almost instantaneous. Audio fidelity is just as good as any CD I've played in the head unit. There's almost nothing else to review here; this was a blissfully simple installation, and it worked exactly as promised. Sebastian has created a first-rate product. Now I just have to find a place my wife will approve of to install the switch and female aux-in jack I picked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClimberDHexMods Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) Sebastian and company, has anyone ever heard of a 3.5mm female aux input that can be installed on a drilled piece of factory plastic? Where all that shows is a 3.5mm female jack and a little surrounding plastic so it doesn't slip right through the hole? like this http://cgi.ebay.com/Peripheral-PDM35-Dash-Mount-3-5mm-Connector-AUX-Input_W0QQitemZ350239311219QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item518be3c573&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 except cheaper? I'm trying to not spend more money than I need to. EDIT: Found it: http://cgi.ebay.com/3-5mm-1-8-Stereo-Jack-Chassis-Mount-Audio-Connector_W0QQitemZ370249144643QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item5634919943&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 Edited September 11, 2009 by ClimberD@HexMods [CENTER][B][I] Front Limited Slip Racing Differentials for the 5EAT now available for $1895 shipped, please inquire for details!

CatInTheDryer Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I picked up a pack (two in a pack) of these at Radioshack for about $3 and soldered them together (used a thin wire the bridge the signal pin). I then slipped a piece of shrink tube over the connectors to cover the pins...the signal pins needed to be bent down. I won't know how it works until this weekend...I picked up an 08 radio and went that route instead. I'll be installing my old radio with Sebastien's board in my parent's OBXT and will update on the results later. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3319/3412015671_91c0643f00_b.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy88s Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Would the Audio/Charge cable that Jazzy sells work with this unit as well so I could run a single connection from my iPhone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFloyd Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Would the Audio/Charge cable that Jazzy sells work with this unit as well so I could run a single connection from my iPhone? Yes, as long as the 3.5mm audio connector that is on that cable can be used with the input connector on the Leptronix aux in board. If not, I can send you a 3.5mm to RCA adaptor.
