In-dash Units

[accordict]

I hate the pop up screens. They block the climate controls, and when I had my Phoenix Red H22 swapped coupe, the screen always folded down and got stuck on the shift knob.

I have mine set to manual screen folding so that doesn't happen...

still have yet to purchase a unit, but it's on my to-do list. Should have the extra cash soon..so some people say single DIN with pop up screen, is better. Others prefer double. I just don't know.

another consideration is the reliability, the fold out screens have a lot more moving parts i replace a lot more of those under waranty than double din units. aqlso manufacturers are not puting any focus on flip outs so the ones that are still available are going to be older design all the research these days goes into the double din at this point my store isnt even installing flip outs in most single ding cars instead we are rebuilding dash pannels to allow double din installs.

I've seen plenty of em with flipnouts and it looks like a clean snug fit... Majority I've seen so far were pioneers it's as if no one buys anything else... Where can I find some reasonable costing h/u

for an extra 150 bucks u can get a dd navi pioneer. but wont play dvds. flipouts aint to bad. they fit coo. a flip out and 2 7inch headrest monitors r a good setup. a cheap flipout out and ryt underneath a good deck is a good setup 2. have all the movie audio go thru ur deck

i own the p3100 pioneer its the shizznet the features are tight!!! for added protection use ebay i got mine for like 295 with free shipping. and got a 2 year warranty for 50 bucks... and to secure your double din use the stock metal bracket that comes with the car or use a double din kit.... runs like 20 bucks id post pics but my camara got wet...

How did you use the bracket? Is it the one on the bottom with stock radio and black pocket? Or are your brackets mount on the side?
Thanks.

I have a flip out screen that's nearly ten years old... it still beats the hell out of most stuff on the market today for quality. Only problem is it doesn't have a built in CD player or DVD player, instead it has a 6 disc CD changer as the second DIN unit. And a DVD player under my seat.

i havent seen my JVC unit get posted.... its killer and i know on the output side of the things it kicks the hell out of alot of others.3 sets of 5v preamps. i can do 5.1 if i wanted to.

Is it as killer as my Eclipse with 3 sets of 8 volt outputs, and full digital signal processing so you can actually run 5.1 sound with full equalization and time alignment? Oh yah, and an optical input for the DVD player so you can actually get surround sound to your amps? Come on, the JVC is decent but it's far from killer
