Right.....so I can hook it up like the 4400. I have the same bypass but for the 4400. With the one that you mentioned. Is the double tapping of the PB needed.

No. the last 2 4400's I've installed is still the same relay as before.

Hmmmm....Ive been on the fence about the 8400

The only thing good about the 8400 is the iPod/iPhone interface. However, it no longer works with my iPhone 5 because of the connector. It still works fine with my iPad and iTouch though. To be honest, I would have been fine just sticking with my 4400.

That makes sense. Just thinking about the sharper resolution, Extra USB port. I still have the 3G and iPhone 4 which I use for my music. It's cool though.

Are the 4400 and 8400 the same plug? As in since i already wired up my 4400 with xm and onstar. I really like the idea of being able to play movies in the back and listen to my tunes.

I'm assuming they make a wire now that will be compatible with the iPhone 5 just like they have that is compatible with the previous iPhones (and current iPad, iTouch,...)?

Never notice the resolution difference. It's a 7in screen driving 80mph... lol

Extra USB port is nice. I've only used it once or twice, and one of those times was to do a write up here http://tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41972

Yes. However, the Ipod cable is difference since it incorporates the iPod functions more.

Hmmm...point taken. I guess it's just to say I got it. Until then....I'm sticking with the 4400.

Yup. I had the 4400 for 1 week and then had a chance to sell it for exactly what i bought it for and got a deal on the 8400 so I jumped. A week later I was thinking what else I could have done with that money...
