[QUOTE="americannight, post: 6975154, member: 624648"] Nice simple system. Let me know how that R-210 deck works out. Personally I've had terrible luck with the R-210. I bought one at Car Toys here in the Seattle area and it died after 45 days of use. Car Toys refused to exchange it after 30 days so made me wait 2 months for it to be repaired by the manufacturer. Meanwhile my daughter's car had no stereo. They didn't even offer up a loaner. Finally got it back and put it in the vehicle. It died after 5 minutes of listening. When I pulled it out, the heat sink was super hot. It basically fried right there in the dash. I know all my wires are right. After the deck died the first time, I double checked the wires with my volt meter. Curious if I just got a bad one off the line or if there are chronic issues with this deck. For $79 I pretty much plan to cut my losses at this point and go somewhere else with better customer service. I don't think JVC is bad in general, though. Have had good luck in the past with their other decks. [/QUOTE]
