Recommend a double din HU with aux-in and no-frills.
I'm so annoyed at how we who bought Cobalts as soon as they came out get so royally screwed in comparison to this new radio that has everything I want and don't have and is totally incompatible to mine.
SO.
I've been scouring electronics stores and the internet and coming up with ****, ****, and EXPENSIVE ****.
Just recommend a nice looking double din HU with an aux-in, I don't need DVD or navigation, flip out neons and the kitchen sink for $1000.

yeah, i've been looking for the same, and i can't seem to find anything. i'd really, really like a screen (not a flip-out one, just a double-DIN with the screen out front), but i don't need navigation.
and, while AUX-in would be awesome, but i've got an ipod, so ipod integration would be really appreciated.
i LOVE the AVIC-D3, but it's $1000, but i don't need half the features it sports. anything that looks like it, for maybe half the price? (hopefully less?)
there are a lot more choices out there for the GTO, i don't understand why it's so hard to find this for the Cobalt.
oh, and i'd like to do without all the flashy, gaudy buttons. just something clean, please.
any pictures of you guys' installs?

Oh yeah, I would actually like not just aux-in, but iPod integration. Aux-in would solve the problem of the static from my wireless transmitter, but not the dying from looking down and looking through songs.

Would this fit our car?
