Car stereo

[dc55_11]

Hey Ive just had the car for a couple of week so wonder if you guys can give me some advice on the stereo, I want to put in a touchscreen unit because the whole under the current one is driving me crazy

Do you know which dimensions fit in nicely and what do you think about this Kenwood model

Any help would be great thanks !

Pretty much all double din units will fit, normally without the cage that comes with the unit.

The fascia around them is normally what the problem is, so many people buy them, or I just made my own.

I see, thanks for the link its gonna help a lot, what do you reckon about the actual model any good? Seems to tick all the boxes but Ive always gone for Pioneer and Sony and never had an experience with Kenwood .

Had a few kenwood head units in the past never had any trouble with them, that's the same double din unit I'm looking at but funds are low at the mo. if you buy this unit can you keep me informed how you get on with it & a few pics please.

Best way is to look at reviews or see if anyone comes along that used that particular unit.

But to be honest, either Pioneer, Sony, Kenwood, JVC etc are all good units. Just all depends what you want from them.
