Upgrades to the stereo.

I went with the Dynavin unit. So far it's a good unit. And other than having to modify the mount, was a pretty plug and play affair. I didn't like the no Sirius thing, so I mounted my Sat receiver in the sunglass holder compartment. Also installed the Spec dock and a remote usb aux plugin in the center console. It was a pain hiding al the wires, but I think it was time well spent.

Next will be the rear backup cam.

I like it. The Dynavin looks like the older model with 6.5" screen.

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
The USB/AUX input looks very factory, nice job! Love the Dynavin, I'd definitely get the newest model if I didn't have to rewire everything since I have DSP

Brilliant install in the sat - very cool

I like the usb socket too - does it draw power even if nothing is plugged in?

There is no power when the key is off. but it is powered when the stereo is on. So I guess the answer to your question is, no it does not draw power while nothing is plugged in.
