Very slight cutting of the dash but very easy install. And not much $$. Actually, could have it done in about 1/2 hour if I didn't screw up the wire harness. Should have taken my time the first time!

I actually tried a roto tool for cutting the dash but ended up using a wood router bit with my cordless drill.

I also love that it has an SD Memory slot and USB connector in the front of it.

that does look good. do you have it hooked up to a carputer or is it just your cd, mp3, radio, and videp player? an if you dont mind how much did it run and where did you get it from.

My company is an importer of electronics from Japan. Paid about $400 for it as a sample. It is a full 2 din unit.

There is no control for it, all built into one unit. Comes with a remote control as well.

It could be certainly be arranged. Drop me a note if anyone is interested in getting one of these units. I can have them drop shipped to you.
By the way mudranger96, nice ride. How did you get the interior lamps red? I’d like to change mine to blue which would match the new head unit.

what's our cost on the unit? I've always wanted one, but it's hard to drop a G when my H/U works fine right now.

Also what's the Brand?

Actually, I have another source that can get these for you guys for $369.99 shipping included. The guy is in NY. As an added detail, you can make this a nav. unit for about another $350. I opted not to since I was a boyscout and hardly ever get lost. LOL.

Any suggestion for getting some new speakers without breaking the bank? I wasn't going to bother but maybe I will now....

It's not a touch screen. I find that they run about $200 more. It would be slick if it were. I'll post full specs on this for you shortly.
