Default Head Unit Question

I am considering buying one of a few decks, the ALPINE IDA-X303,ALPINE IDA-X305,ALPINE IDA-X100.

let me know what you guys think, and will all 3 decks fit without issues and the radio cover will close?

and what would I need to keep my dash controls?

here are links for each decks description.

I have the X-305, fits with no problems.

Many on these forums recommend Modifry's steering controls and are most likely the best. There are alternatives (I have something from Autoleads) but Modifry would probably be best.

Just make sure you plan carefully where to put the iPod and cable, which I'm sure is the raison d'etre you are considering those head units. Namely, if you want the iPod to be in the secret compartment, be prepared to remove pretty much every interior panel, including the entire centre console to give you the room to thread that cable.

There's a nice set of pics and walkthroughs for it, something like "DIY head unit install for AP2" or something similar to search for.
