Finally received all the pieces and got it installed...

Screen (Flat)...

Screen Tilted and the Bezel is Dirty...

Also, the unit is straight, and braced very well. This picture was taken at an angle and turned out all weird.

Nice HU, I wanted a 6019 for quite sometime, but I also wanted USB so im prob going with the 8019. Does that HU tilt both ways (foward and back)?

 

[OmegaBunny 10+ year member]

well it sits flat and then I can tilt in downwards. I also looked at the 7019 and the 8019 but could not justify paying $125 plus for a USB port. I have been looking on the internet and I believe that you can take and iPod IDE and put it in to regular portable hard drives. So I may be able to mod a portable HDD to play through the Kenwood iPod Controller. But I am not 100% sure. If I get it to work I will post pics and a walk-thru.

How do you like the caliber?

 

[OmegaBunny 10+ year member]

I love it. I had a '06 Wrangler, but it was to bad on gas, so I traded it in on the '07 Caliber AWD. I wish it had a bit more balls to it, but once you learn to drive the CVT, it has some get up and go. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Especially now that they have the lifetime powertrain warranty.

Yea that pisses me off cause my wife bought an SXT back in march before they offered the lifetime warrenty. does that dash just pull off???

That sucks. The dash just pulls off. All you have to do is grab the shift knob and pull straight up. It may seem like it is not going to come off and keep pulling and watch your nose. Once it is off, start at the lower part of the shifter bezel, and take a small screwdriver, butter knife, etc and slide it under and pop it off. Once it is off, start at the lower part of the radio bezel, just abouve the shifter, and do the same thing working from bottom to the top. It's really easy to do.
