Depends on what you are looking for, do you want in dash DVD/NAV or a dash mounted TomTom? Give some more details. I have the Pioneer D3 in my car and I love it, here's a couple of pics...

I'm not very familiar with the different types, but I would like a in Dash for sure.

What price range was your Pioneer in ?

Also, how did you get the Blue Dash Lights ? Mine has a horrible orange color on radio and dash

I guess it depends on who you talk to but I like Pioneer. This is one of the newest units they realeased and MSRP is $999. You can check out http://www.avic411.com and nose around that forum.

I had someone replace them all, it's pretty tedious task

It's in the instructions. As for the actual artwork, check out http://www.avic411.com there's a thread with a whole bunch of them. (good site for info as well)

Hi JSsmith

Do you know a lot about the radios in the MAxima's ? I currently have a NON bose, factory installed Nissan radio(AM/FM,single CD,Cassette,SAT) in my 05 maxima. My question is with the SAT display. Do all the Maxima's only show 7-8 letters of singer or song title or do they scroll ?

Also, how do i get RDS(showin call letters of FM stations)

Actually it's been so long since I've had the stock system I honestly don't remember. It seems like they did scroll though. And RDS is sent by the radio stations, it should show up if they are broadcasting, as far as I know.Sorry I'm not more help!!

Sorry, but no. They'd probably be your best bet. Did you try the manual?
