[QUOTE="dsw1204, post: 8530438, member: 663807"] Well, the aftermarket head unit days are practically dead. Since auto makers are integrating everything into their dashboards, it makes it practically impossible to put in an aftermarket head unit in them, That market is in it's last days...I am afraid. I am a hold out, although. I still drive a car that can have an aftermarket head unit instead of the factory one. My next car will be the same, probably a 1999 model or so. Yeah, having a brand new 2017 car would be nice, but listening to music in my car is top priority to me and you just can't get as high of SQ with factory as you can with a high end aftermarket head unit...in my opinion. After 2005 or 2006, it seems like almost every car made has complete integration in the dash. I am guessing this a big reason why Eclipse/Fujitsu Ten got out of the aftermarket business. [/QUOTE]
