So out of all the decent brands i've found a total of 2 HUs that do what i want.



http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Products/CarAudioVideo/In-Dash/DVD-Receiv ers/AVH-P5100DVD?tab=B

This ones a flip out screen which i really like. But the cost is $500 plus $120 bluetooth adapter plus $50 new sirius adapter plus remote (not included) = about $700 total. More than I want to spend.



http://mobile.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL028484&pathId=133&page=2

This is the other option. Single din touch screen. $450
Bluetooth built in. Works with existing sirius adapter.




Both have USB. I like the bigger screen on the pioneer but i don't like its price.

I obviously like Pioneer better, but i wouldn't pay that much extra for just a DVD player... I guess it depends on how bad you want to watch sh1t while driving.. I couldn't see watching anything as loud as I play it, unless it is a musics video, but I don't need any distractions, as I am usually looking for cops with my finger on the ATT button on my remote.

The JVC plays dvds also, has video in/out and all the same features. Not that I'll even use that though.

RCA issue i've heard is fixed on the new ones but obviously id have to research that before i bought one.




Difference is pretty much is the bigger screen worth $250 more. I'm thinking not.

I like the JVC, it looks pretty damn clean. I've had a few JVCs and had pretty good luck

all new jvc arsenal peices use 5volt bur brown dac.

Most likely a result from them merging with kenwood a while back.

Mite as well Look at some Excealons while your at it.
The 09 models are pretty slick.
