my suggetsion---can the factory radio and invest $150 in a decent aftermarket unit. I got a nice JVC am/fm/CD unit with dash adapter and install for about $175. money well spent.

Those Factory Units can be a hassle from time to time. Do the research, Even check out EBay, you can find some great deals.
Good Luck!

Brian A,

Where did you get the dash adapter for your JVC? I just recently bought a JVC KW-XC777 double-din unit and have been unsuccessful at finding a dash adapter (the hole is much too wide, and most adapters account for the difference in height rather than width). Thanks for any suggestions!
