Im a complete lament when it comes to electrical so help me out here...

I am planning on getting an Alpine CDA-9883 and the Modifry wired harness, im just trying to figure out what do i get?

http://www.modifry.com/products/dci/buy.htm

On the above page, i selected "Buy the Wired DCI here ($90)"

Then i select "PnP with SCV for Alpine wired"...

Is this correct?

 

yes that's it , but you can get the PAC Swix peice for half that price and you can program it to make whatver button on your dash do whatver function on the radio you'd like it to do.

 

I don't know if this is still true, but in the old days the PAC had a
significant delay between when you pressed the button and the
command was issued

 

nope no longer there... old one was swi , this is swi-x or swix

 

im trying to find out a website that sells the PAC SWI-X item. i looked at their website but i cant purchase directly.

 

crutchfield

 

Crutchfield appears to only carry the SWI-Jack, at $70 vs the $90 of the DCI.

For ease of install with an Alpine HU, it doesn't get much simpler than the wired DCI and PnP harness from Modifry. Plug all the pieces together and you're in business. No cutting, splicing or programing (other than flipping a couple of up/down switches).

 

right but if your smart you'll type in swi-x on www.froogle.com and see that companies sell them for 35$

 

Ya I like the speed control function on the DCI also, not to mention you are supporting a member who has contributed a lot to this site.

This is not true - there are four (5 if you want speed controlled volume) to hook-up. I soldered mine but some people use wire crimps. It is not a plug and play item. I just installed one yesterday.
