I'm looking at the Alpine IVA-W505 but the price is up there (around 1k) Not sure if it's worth it if you're not getting the bluetooth and navi with it also

I'd check out maybe some of the older Kenwood DDX units. I can't say I'm a fan of Alpine products.

lol yea 300 my sis bought the actual strobes for me which were 175 in all they were a bday gift ..........soooooooooooo

still sittin at 300 lol

i do appreciate the effort for u to catch me in my own words lmao BUT i only lie sometimes but not w/ this lol im not gonna lie bro im cheap as s*** wen it comes to my car bc i cant see dropping mad money into a car thats not "perfect"

meaning its not fast enough for me to keep it for like 5-7 yrs and on top of that it doesnt have any luxury for me ie heated seats leather and projectors

i know i can do all this but its still not fast enough in the end n turbos out of the ? ide blow my engine/transmission in a week the way i drive lol

sorry if im ranting but im jacked up on NOS and doing a bio paper lol

Just an FYI though, you'll probably want to shop for the ipod cable accessory for that Kenwood. Not sure on price, but if $ matters, include the ipod cable, the wiring harness, antenna adapter, and Nissan's trim piece (you can find a link from AppleBonker's FAQ) in to your personal quote to know just how much $ you'll be sinking.

Just saying that if you're trying to get the job done under a certain amount, make sure you add up the cost of all the small pieces needed to install the head unit.
