I have been searching this site as well as google and most of the threads that show up are more than year old. I was hoping to find some answers that could also help new buyers such as myself.

So I just bought a 2009 Altima Coupe S and I am currently looking for an aftermarket GPS/Navi system that will sit flush in place of my radio and also have a removable faceplate (for security purposes)

Similar to this(Courtesy of "bundy26") except I am hoping to get one with a red trim and lights (to match instrument panel)


I am hoping to find an affordable kit with the following features:
Bluetooth Phone (audio doesn't really matter)
Ipod interface (with indirect and direct control)
XM (SIrius if available in the AC)
HD Radio

Crutchfield has many options that interest me, but I thought I would come to the experts :) first before I drop $400-700 on something.

My system is equipped (or rather unequipped) with the following items:
No Bose
No Navi
Cat/CH UP/Down is displayed on dash, but not yet activated/installed
Single CD changer
On my steering wheel I have volume controls, source, and seek (the clicker thing)

I would appreciate any help that someone with previous installation or similar experience can provide for me. Let me know if there is some thread that I have missed covering all of this and thank you all in advance.

PS: DVD is a wash for me, I would rather pay less and not have it than pay for it and not use it. (I like driving my car, not watching movies)

Edit: I just noticed there is an audio/video forum and realized that this thread should be moved there. I would appreciate a mods assistance

I just got the JVC KW-NT3HDT for the Xterra and love it, well worth the 600 price tag. It's the only 2-DIN with removable faceplate.

Hey man thanks for the response. I know I might be a little picky, but I was looking for one with the ipod connection in the back so I can route it to my arm rest console or the glovebox.

If you buy the Ipod/Iphone connection cable in order to see video from the ipod, then it will be on the back and you can route it to the glove box.
