As long as the person you see is an not an idiot, then you should be good. Unfortunately if you land on the wrong person, goodbye everything. I dont even go to the dealer for parts anymore. 2 months ago i asked for some bolts and they gave me the completely wrong ones. Even after i pointed out which ones specifically. :doh:

Dumbass dealerships man. I hope not all are like that.

Mine is fairly mod-friendly so I should be ok, like you said, they'd have to be idiots to deny a claim on the stereo, obviously nothing I did could have caused the touchscreen to stop working. If it doesn't work out at this dealer there's one other that's close by that is also mod-friendly so I can try that as well. If all else fails, I'll just replace it with a much better Pioneer unit and call it a day but I'd really rather not waste money on that when I might need a clutch in the near future.

I have equal length headers, so I have the sound of efficiency, not the boxer rumble. :lol:

You and your love of videos...

But since I've yet to do the tunnel one (maybe in July since we're going to Atlantic City) I'll make one this weekend...though I may not post it, the EL header on this car makes the car sound like a riced out Honda on camera for whatever reason. I was scared to death to get the EL headers as no one around me had them and all I had to go off of were the YT videos I watched...but once I heard my car for the first time I was on the dyno I was in love...sounds sooo much better. I'll see how the video turns out and we'll go from there.

Just got back from the dealer, they didn't say anything about all my mods...I unhooked and packed up my AP of course but it's not like they don't know it's tuned but I figured it wouldn't hurt. They tried to reboot the navi with no luck so they ordered me a new one, should be here in a week. :tup:

Hmm, I really don't know, it's just a standard MP4 video, shouldn't be a problem.

What OS and browser do you use? I just tried it in IE, Chrome and Firefox on Win7 without being logged into PhotoBucket and it loaded right up for me.
