navall 3 fitted

As above I've fitted my navall 3 and just want to know what grounding the system means,as in do I need to run a wire from the system to the chassis or is this built in to the original wiring. Also can I just buy a 50 quid dvb tuner off ebay and plug it in and also are the cheaper active subwoofers an easy plug and play. This is my first venture into car audio.

Jeff (Coolcat) will be able to help, he has been unwell this past few days, something to do with Sprout Overdose

Seriously though, any of the extras on my Nav 3 are earthed by the unit so I recon there is no need for a direct earth from the unit itself.
If you want TV I would advise Radioguy Sean`s TV units, you not only covered against any faults the help in these threads is first class.

Hi Andy,

The head unit is already earthed to the car body within the wiring so no need to run any additional earth wires Sir

As Ken just said, there is a purpose built freeview receiver for the Navall3 which is controllable by the head unit itself
