My bad it was a DNX5120... Im having troubles again with the A/V input (not audio video), If you look on the picture in the bottom left hand corner, that little hole? Thats what Im having problems with. Also the USB dosent work either... Another thing is the stock deck made my sub hit way harder...

well what sort of trouble are you having with the aux input? does it cut in and out or stop working after a while, etc. what about the usb ... you need to have your files on a USB flash drive, or have them in proper format on you mp3 player so that it will read like a flash drive.
you might have to enable "disk use" if avail. on your zune not sure.

as for you sub... you need to readjust your gain setting.

You can get them on ebay from 300 used to 500 new. Check the settings, sometimes you have to manually turn the a/v inputs on.

So I went outside and fiddled with it for a bit and come to find out it has to be on the video setting in order for it to work.... Kinda weird
