bobt Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I agree, got one in my Maruti, much more basic than your ride, but if you have power and ground, it should work. My instructions also said once everything is hooked ip, to press the rest button under the faceplate, didn't do it but maybe !!!If that doesn't work, PM me and I'll look at my installation paper tomorrow and see if I can walk you through it.Happy trailsBob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
