Simple nothing but the best - Alpine's CDA-9813 DeLorean and I both have this head unit, simple the best. Sells for $400 in stores, I got mine for $287 shipped. Play MP3, has all the hook up on the back for subs, and much more. It has a 3 level tilt, and 2 lines of text display. Very nice looking unit. The step up is the same exact power wise, just has an extra line of text... no need for that, so save the $200 and just get the CDA-9813 It's two steps down from a DVD screen 60X4 Watts

 

i got my ClarionDXZ835MP for cheap and i love it...all out puts are 4volt....and multi color display...

SLAAB:
that thing is awsome...where can i get one of those Uniden scaners?...it will fit in the exsisting space?......how much are they?

and those Alpine decks are nice too!

Hey that sounds great Cedric. I am waiting on it to be delivered and as soon as I set it up I will let you know.

No MP3 playback, and maybe a little out of our price range, but look at Nakamichi CD tuner HU, and addin an iPOD.

MP3 Playback (can be hidden away), lus very understated looks, and superb reputation for sound quality.
