I am starting to sound like a broken record but if your car has an electric aerial and you want it to work properly don't buy a pioneer. Just done it and they don't have a dedicated aerial switch wire, just a amp switch wire which can be used and it won't give factory functionality of your...

Pioneer wont work your electric aerial properly. See my questions on the issue in this section. You need a head unit with a dedicated aerial switch wire, which pioneer no longer has. Just had this problem with a pioneer mp3 head unit i bought and put in. H

Pioneer won't work your aerial properly. I have just had this problem in my VR. They do not have a specific aerial wire. just one which can be used for an amp or aerial switch. It will go up and down when the unit is own connected to this wire but it won't work the aerial like it would work now...
