Does it matter if it fits on course as well?

nzer · 04-19-2013, 12:11 AM

I'm a pioneer guy.. Always ran them.. Always loved them.. I wanted the best one I could find WITHOUT a motorized screen.. So I went with their new line up and picked this up

ive always wondered how would this work with our cars alike, having the usb port and auxillary jack at the bottom of the center console, with a new radio console??

sorry im a noob when it comes to replacing the radios.

I'm also a Pioneer guy! I've been using the x8500BHS for about 1 month now. Loving it!!!

I went with the 950, it does traffic everything I want.. I looked at the z150.. I could've got it.. It's their "flagship" model. But in the end the motorized screen pushed me away.. I'd love a 7" screen over the 6.1... But I had issues with a motorized screen once and decided never again.. Even though now I don't use CD's, I just turned away from it.. Either model is awesome.. If they could've made a 7" with out the cd/DVD slot, I'd be all over it..

I really can't wait for the "next generation" models due out in a couple years.. Bluray, built in WiFi and the works... They have WiFi models now, but I haven't seen a useable bluray/WiFi hotspot radio thats consumer friendly, but alas I've been out of the hifonics game for quite some time now

I personally went with the Kenwood DNX570HD and I must say I love it! Build in Nav, DVD, BT, touchscreen, the works.

@Gixxersixxerman helped me install mine, took around 45 minutes to stealth wire everything and install.

Pioneer guy here as we'll. I got the AVIC-X940BT because it looks similar to the navi in the Gt86 and BRZ. Really nice fit as well. Oh yea and was half price @ Best Buy.

I went for an Alpine W925R. Has sat nav of course but as well as all the usual stuff it also has DAB which IMO is well worth it.
