Thanx for the replies.....I figured I would post here instead of replying...This in reference to my other post....
I know what ya mean....I had a radio installed in my Toyota and they royally screwed it up...I mean it was loose and everything...They said it FIT my vehicle...Not Quite....
Here is what I am doing......
Not ordering the RF, DVD and NAV....This comes to roughly $4000..give or take...
Then ordering a Kenwood DVD/CD/MP3 player...Touch Screen.... and installing in the dash....Getting the XM or Sirrius Radio also...Upgrading the speakers and installing an amp and subwoofer.....Then I already have the Delorme GPS Nav system for my laptop which tells me when to turn and everything...It plugs in USB...I figure the most expesive part is the computer, which I can build a Win XP P4 system for really cheap and fab a case for under the seat....This is what I do on the side anyway ;-) :computern Then installing my xbox and PS2...since I have three of each.....Don't ask....That's another Forum... ;-)...I might install another screen up top or two in the headrests....but maybe later....I know it seems like a lot...but I have been saving for years and this is my forst BIG BOY truck...Wahooooooooooooo.... So I figure I deserve it....Well...not really....
I could do all of this for under $2500...maybe...Unless I go hog wild...
I hear ya about the dash being intergrated....That's the reason I am waiting to see what else they come out with...I might install the screen where the NAV would go and leave the dash alone...Not quite sure..Let me know your thoughts....Is there something I am missing or leaving out....I am not really an audiophile...I think that's the term...So I don't know a lot of the specifics. Let me know your thoughts....Thanx all
