I Installed a ebay no name brand navi/dvd/bluetooth/ipod double din headunit.
-Paid 230 for it ( best offer on the auction) I noticed the best offer option is gone but I bet the seller will still do somekind of deal.
Direct link : HD 6.2" GPS NAVIGATION CAR DVD RADIO STEREO AM/FM/MP3 - eBay (item 170586816655 end time Feb-03-11 19:28:18 PST)
I must say the headunit functions are great, the picture quality is damm good, touch screen is pretty fast. The GPS is nice and on point.
My favorite part is the bulit in bluetooth. Has the mic built right in, I tested it out with a few phone calls and everyone said they heard me loud and clear, it also rings through the speakers when someone calls. And right on the screen you can chose to answer it or ignore it.
-Only negitive about the headunit so far is the IPOD makes a slight buzz sound inbetween flipping between songs, but ill see if i can adjust it out somehow. But its cool to flip right through the ipod by just touching the screen.
PICS:
Wiring up the harness is just like any other radio. I used this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K:MEWNX:IT
The GPS antenna is stuck to the bottom part of the dash with double sided tape.
The stock radio brackets bolted right up to the ebay navi, just had to cut off these 4 tiny little tabs (hard to explain you'd have to see it.
Then to make it sit flush with the trim I put some 1/8" washers on the top 2 screws that bolt the brackets to the dash ( theres 4 of these bolts total ).
Up till this point its basicly the same as any other double din radio install .
The one thing I had to do that others didnt was sand down the radio trim.
I used my little electric mouse sander and just went around all 4 inside corners till the radio fit. I shaved off about 1/8 of a inch maybe alittle more .
The other issue is theres isnt much room in the back for all the wires, takes some fighting but I think any navi/dvd unit will have that issue.
