What did you do to/for your sc430 today?

It connects only to the head unit. Once connected, it adds another CD player to the head unit. Press CD button and the head display swaps between CD and CD1. The CD1 head display does not show text so you will not see song titles or artists. The steering wheel controls does work to skip songs. My BT connects incredibly fast to the VAIS tech unit. It seems within a few seconds after starting the car, the music starts playing. CD1 is the only function I use now. It's great.

I was told that there is a blue wire in the nav screen harness that can be grounded to make the car think the parking brake in on therefore the nav thinks you're parked and will never be locked out. No confirmation on it yet, though. No way to remove the "I agree," screen, from my understanding. Doesn't bother me much. I have a 2015 Mazda CX5 and it has a similar screen too.

I am sure that I read the post about this. Someone in this forum, replaced the ML radio for the DVD, grounded pin 14 (?) so he can play the DVD on the move. I saw the video he created, watching the DVD when the car in motion.

Thanks Bgw. So the mod did not disable the speed sensor. What else can we try?

There are two ways to look at that: one is being identified by others (like you state) and the other is to have your car easily identifiable if it is stolen.

Had my side mirrors swapped out today for some from a donor vehicle. The mirrors on mine would go left/right but not up/down. These are working fine, so that was great.
I also had one of the chrome tipped turn signal bulbs on the tail light from my +06 conversion burn out, so I got those replaced with regular amber ones.
Finally, I dropped her off at the body shop today to get the previous owner's wear and tear removed. She has TONS on rock chips - literally at least 50 - on the hood and front fender, and a bad scrape down the driver side from door to back wheel well. So she is getting the front bumper, hood, and driver side all cleaned up. So I am without my baby until 9/26 but can't wait to see her after her she is done.
