The only downside I've had after switching to the Avin (and I'm sure those who went Dynavin feel the same) is the loss of the cluster information. That's it. Google Maps blows the MKIV away, the bluetooth is easier to use with the aftermarket unit, gaining USB inputs, etc.

The install is a downside... but not insurmountable. Unlike probably most here, I was/am a professional audio installer and I don't think I even needed to look at the instructions. For the average DIY'er it should still be very doable.

If you prefer the OEM head unit, I understand that position too. I was just giving your reasons for the switch.
