I love mine but after long research I chose the Eclipse AVN 7000, its a little pricey but you get a lot of bang for the buck.

You've been watching "Unique Whips" on the Speed channel, haven't you?

Not my cup of tea... but, hey, if you like it, go for it!

the link is just taking me back to the front page...but is your head unit where the air-vents are? ]

if so why did you decide to put it there instead of where the cd player is?

[ljnlaw]

They make a kit to replace the OEM head unit and the CD player, hopefully this link will work...if it doesn't just go to the Gallery and my page "LJNLAW" and you can check out all of my pics.

Yes, the linked worked....Can you point me in the direction of where to get the replacement kit?

Also, Have you thought about putting trim around your haed unit...maybe to match the rest of the car?

Surreal I see that you live in Philly...I live n the suburbs of Philly if you ever want to check out my ride let me know. Also if you want to have the work done by professionals I would strongly recommend giving Rich at http://www.s-waves.com/ a call they did my work. If you give them a budget they will stay in your price range and give you what you want.
