Sup guys, almost time to buy a in-dash for my truck ! Just wondering opinions or anything new bein' released b4 I spend $1500+ on a in dash. Since this was released on how to bypass the n-2 Ive been checkin' em out: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/sho...712post10956712 . Anyone tried that yet? Seems pretty tight if it unlocks everything ! I like Alpines buttons but thats about it. Who has the best motors, options and displays too? I was lookin at the Pioneer 7500 but its like $2k + and doesnt have Navi. Since that mod for the AVIC N-2 voids my warranty with Pioneer should I just buy it online? Thanx!

Check out Kenwood . They have a really nice flipout screen that you can add navi to . I just put a Clarion VRX755VD screen in my truck . Great screen . I'm hoping Clarion comes out with a navi. unit to add to it soon .

ive always been a kenwood guy and never really like pioneer decks, even tho they make some good stuff

i don't know anyone with the avic n2, so i can't say anything about it

you can still get the n1 for a cheaper price plus watch movies on the road. I have the n2 and i like it because of xm navtraffic. excellent product fro the price paid $1799.00

Trim the dash and put in an Eclipse AVN5435/5495 for the win :happy:

i think i might end up getting the Pio 7600 eventually, you can always add on navigation. But then again i can get it through accomadations for below cost, so thats mainly why. Otherwise I probably wouldnt have an indash. But the N2 is very good. Have you looked a the D1? Thats another possibility you could go with. I would only go with Pioneer for in-dash units. I only know of 1 thats has had problems.

That mod does work, weve tried it before. There was a thread on here about it not too long ago

Well guys I dont think I wanna trim my dash for a double din so back to flip outs. ANymore opinions alpine tv vs. pioneer avic N-2? Will I have that much noticable sound difference? Are the Alpine CVA-1014, IVA-D901 and IVA-D310 all navi compataible? Also AVIC N-2s on EBAY are around $1300, if I was to do the solder mod on it that would void the warranty. What if I buy it in store and buy the Circuit City protection plan tho: http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Pione...oductDetail.do . If I buy it and somethin happens in a year do I still get a new one? Hmmmmm......Any word on new models? Havent priced ALpine yet. 4 year plan at Best Buy is $79.99 and deck is $1999 b4 $300 mail in rebates.
Pioneer - In-Dash XM-Ready CD/DVD Player/GPS Navigation System w/6.5" Touch Screen $1,999.99



4 - Year PSP Car Deck $500.00 AND UP $79.99

Im curious if anyone has pics of a Alpine D-310 installed? How does everyone like those? Guess I don't need Navi cause my truck likes the garage LOL.
