I just ordered a Eclipse cd5030 from Amazon.com from Pacific Stereo which is an authorized dealer for $240 shipped. I have done a lot of reviewing and it seems this h/u is pretty spectacular for the price. It has built in bluetooth. No additional accessories needed for it. It is not capable of an active system.

Thanks for the suggestion. That looks like a good HU. The only problem I see is that the iphone isn't compatible for the phonebook which would be a major inconvenience.

The KDC-X993 is a bad azz HU. The hu is somewhat hard to read to in direct sunlight but I would definately recommend this Hu to anyone.

I like the look of that kenwood. I'll be adding Sirius to the install. Do the single DINS give good access to the song titles and artist? On the factory HU it has a 3 inch screen so the info is always right there.

I'll be doing the install myself. Can anyone recommend where to buy everything from? Crutchfield seems overpriced?
