The Nissan Path

Hey all,

I have an 08 LE with Navigation, sat radio, back up camera, basically everything but the rear entertainment center. I was wondering if anyone knows if you can install an OEM entertainment center? If so, anyone know where to pick up a used system? Thanks.

ebay is your best bet to find the oem unit. but you must find it with the pigtail. after searching for one with a pigtail i gave up and went aftermarket with an audiovox unit. check out this post

Thanks. I've seen that thread, but I can't seem to find if he had the same bose head unit. I was thinking of going aftermarket as well. How has the audiovox unit held up? Anything you would do different?

I don't have nav, but it doesn't really matter as far as the rear entertainment goes. I just used the aux in line for audio from the dvd player.

Ok. I didn't know that. Did you splice in from the rear? Also if you don't want to listen through the car speakers, can you still use the headphones?

Yes, basically just split the audio, it goes to the back of the aux input plug and to the lcd unit, where it is transmitted over infrared to the headphones. I can use them independently or at the same time.

Thanks for the info. Next question, when I look for a used unit, what parts do i need to look for? The list I can think of is:

The screen/monitor
DVD player
Supporting wires from screen to dvd player


Not sure what else.

Thats all you need. I was lucky enough to get the dvd player and lcd with pigtails, so I had the connectors.....I then spliced my own wiring between the 2. The pigtails are hard or near impossible to find.

That's what I'm afraid of. Gotta find a wrecked one somewhere so I can crawl in at the junkyard and get the parts I need.

Does someone have a model number for the AudioVox?

I'm still looking to do this, and I don't have any update on part numbers. Sorry. If you find something, please post back here. Thanks

Thanks. Do you remember which model number you have? Also did you install it yourself or some other company?

i had a shop install it for me. could not find the time to tinker with it.

Thanks for the link. Looks like it's currently unavailable through Amazon. I might have to get a newer model, but possibly an Audiovox. Thanks for your help.

By chance do you have the sunroof in your pathfinder? I'm just trying to find out what an entertainment center would look like when installed with a sunroof.
