I have always known Clarion to be really great. So talk to LEVEL 10 in mesa on val vista and univeristy and they can get you hooked up. Also some brands are alot harder to bypass the video playback ebrake deal. not somethign that is legal or safe but nice to do so passangers can watch up front.

I have an alpine IVA W200, that in my view has one of the best quality screens and user friendly internals of any double din. Oh and alpine tells you how to bypass the video, so all you'll need is a push button and a toggle.

I just put the Clarion MAX685BT in my truck and i freakin love it! Bluetooth, steering wheel control plug, dual zone, usb cable, xm, you name it it has it! With Clarion you get a reliable brand and more features for the money than most other brands!!!!!!!! Check it out you won't be disappointed!

pioneer is really good, especially sound quality. kenwood has a new radio with Relay outputs, so you can do things like open a passenger shaved door from the radio, or control a air horn, turn on compressor.....etc

if you dont need navigation, id do the pioner ahp4000dvd in a heart beat... i sell tons of them at my shop and everybody loves them .. full ipod functions, blue tooth ready, sirius and xm ready, and you can run a tv tune to them as well... they run about $500 and n my opinion you cant beat that unt for the price...

I've got the Pioneer AVIC-D3 and I love it! Just put it in my 08' Rado this weekend (that was a mess). It does suck b/c the NAV is dvd based, meaning to actually find a place or use the map, plan a trip, etc... you have to insert the NAV disc. You can plan the trip and pull it back out and it's stored in memory after that point, but it's still annoying. Now though, I use my mp3 player and the AV2 jack for all my music and keep my NAV disc in all the time. And it's bypassed so I can watch movies while cruising. Here's a pic I snapped yesterday
