Fixed. That headunit is crap. You had better send it to me so I can evaluate it. Actually, that's almost the exact one I'm looking for. Nice find!

so you just had to 1 up me well more like 1000 up me. I was going to go aftermarket but i wanted to keep the stock look and not spend much to anything. o and it was under $200 and i only had $200 and not one cent more lol.

BTW if you tell me i should have spent that money on an aftermarket head unit go rain on someone else parade because i dont want hear it. lol

I'm surprised you even found this one. They're quite rare to come up for sale. I just want a regular 6 disc with MP3 and AUX. Mainly the 2005+ stereos if I can find it. If not I would settle for a 6 disc with MP3 of some sort.

I wanted the tremor because of the nicer specs on it. The 04-05 tremor were the same and 05 was the last year they made the tremor. the only thing that would make the tremor better would be if it had an aux in on it.

Look on eBay there is a 2006 or 2007 6disc with aux for a great price I will post a link tomorrow for you. It's the same style screen as the 06head unit I have and thats a pioneer corporation one so I think this one might be too.

That's what I want. It has MP3, 6 disc and the aux button. There is a separate box I can get that plugs into the back of the HU that will make the Aux work and give me RCA jacks to plug in whatever I want.
