Don't mind at all..Check my signature for all the details!

In summary..
- Pioneer AVIC Z150BH - they have it listed at $1200 normally
- Ordered it online (Ebay) for about $850 (plus a $100 customs fee!)
- Then all the accessories you need (wiring harness, adapters, cables) runs you another...$100ish

Hope that helps you out...Worth every penny IMO

Well the cheaper options are all around $500-$600 and there are just too many little annoyances with each one...Whether it's shitty nav, laggy interface, poor bluetooth connectivity, lack of DVD or inputs, etc. etc. every unit I looked at had its flaw besides this one.

If there is a certain aspect that really doesn't concern you (like maybe the app radio functionality) then you can definitely go cheaper safely...If you're like me and want it all if you're gonna put down big bucks anyway, you're better off spending the extra ~$300 as its probably your most used mod on the car

Glad to help!

Decided to man up and do the red tinting of my tail lights by myself...Done all the mods myself so far so I wanted to keep that going...
Keep in mind these are my red tinted Spyder/Sonar lights, not the stock tails.

So far looks really good! Followed the DIY for red tinting tails on this forum...Lots of good help throughout the 20+ pages

After the red tint (no clear, no polish/buff)

Doing mods yourself grows your bond with the car. Keep it up, looking good so far!

Reverse cam installed

Went with the Rydeen Duo and hooked it up to my AVIC Z150BH

Pics and potentially a DIY coming soon (Very easy DIY once you have a few wiring specifics laid out for you)
