Headunits

So I've decided to buy a new headunit, I finally got an iphone after about two years of not having any sort of music player, All I want it one with a usb plug, and preferably red lighting I don't plan on getting bigger subs/amps and so on, I just want to play my ipod since I deliver pizzas and get bored of new cd's I make within about an hour of working haha, and since vendors don't sell them from what I've seen, I'm completely lost on where to get a decent cheap one besides walmart/bestbuy

Most all of the ones you'll find today have an ipod input. Get one with a GPS, it's well worth the extra money. Either way, you can't go wrong with pioneer or kenwood. Get a double din unit, they look much nicer and are much easier to use than single din.

Well I just called my audio place and they said they could install something that plays and charges Ipods through the stock radio for 140 total, I'm assuming that would be cheaper then getting a headunit and such

Yeah that would be just a single din jvc or some crap. Nothing looks cheaper than a single din in a double din slot. Just save up the money and get a nice double you wont regret it.

find out what it is they are installing...buy it and install it yourself and then you'll save even more

I don't think mine looks to bad for being a single Din, My alpine also charges my Ipod, 199 at best buy year and a half ago. It does everything I need it to do
