So finally installed a new deck....

So it took a while to install but here it is. It was a pain in the ass to install because the wire that powered my old deck (the stock one) didn't actually have any power....we couldn't find a wire with enough power to run the deck so we wired it right into the auto window fuse. It took forever to do but its in and working. Yes, I realize my antenna is not hooked up in the photo, but it is now hooked up. Now just have to work out how to hook up the navigation and its set to go. Don't mind all the cables hanging out in the middle...in the process of hooking up my heated leather seats. Also buffing the white trim soon so I haven't put all of that back on either so my car kinda looks a mess inside :p

When going aftermarket, touch screen are so cheap now, why not?! You can get a decent one brand new for under $250 which is what people used to pay for plain old cd player.

True buuttttt, this one happened to come up and $100 (that includes everything, mounting surround, harness) is basically what I can afford at the moment sooooo....works for me Like I said before...maybe when I have a bit more cash I will buy a different unit but for now this one looks awesome and came at an affordable price so I love it

lol ya ^ it was a great price, the stereo sounds REALLY good, has GPS, Movies, TV you name it...

i like the separate "brain" its easy to hook up different inputs, and everything combined that was thrown into this deal woulda cost a lot

but yeah, this things actually a really nice unit.
