That is a really nice looking install. What kind of car is that anyway?

Thanks for the compliments guys. Really appreciate it. It's a 2004 Lincoln LS.

Nice install. Looks clean, and I bet it sounds great. Only thing I don't like is that the h/u bezel doesnt match the rest of the dash. aside from that, lookin great

They had the car for two full days. Their hours are 9am-6pm, so 18 hours.

How do you like that w205? I have one I am about to install into my Yukon but I'm starting to have regrets. I noticed it doesn't have a volume knob just volume buttons and thats going to be a downside. Other than that, how do you like it?

I absolutely love it. Seriously, has to be the easiest headunit to operate I've ever personally dealt with. Every feature is just a few touches a way. The volume being push button as opposed to a knob doesn't bother me at all. If I need to put it down in a hurry I can hit the mute on the remote or steering wheel and it'll cut it down instantly.

As far as sound goes...awesome. It's a got a 24 bit DAC, the highest offered by a non F1 status headunit by Alpine. Everything sounds really nice and clear. DVD playback is very good too. When the movie is playing, just touch the bottom of the screen and the menu bar appears for control.

The iPod interface is seamless. My iPod is basically regulated to a thumb drive. Everything is controlled on the W205.

Sounds good, but what about the infamous alpine dvd enable thing and setting enable thing where to change the time or bass/treble you have to do the whole parking brake ordeal. Did you get the TR-7 or something?

Clean ass install, and a well designed and built box is what makes that 500watts go so far

All of that is easily accessable and adjustable. The headunit is hooked up so that it only plays movies while parked. I didn't even want the temptation there for movies to be able to be played while in drive. 99% more than likely I would never do it. I'm pretty disciplined about that, but I didn't want to even chance it. So unless I'm in park, it won't play. You'll get audio, but the screen blacks out.

I have 100% 0 issues doing anything with the headunit

Thanks. It sure does [box]. It really hits very solid. Sounds very good too.
