Thumbs up Planning to do an in dash install

Alright well I am planning on doing an in dash nav install shortly.
I saw in the gallery someone used this unit and seems to be a nice unit especially for the money. $135 plus shipping in factory refurbished on ebay.
I just want to make sure I will be able to connect it to my amp so I can use my iphone through it for music and all. Also for bluetooth phone through speakers and all and it also has an SD card slot so really need to be able to load that with music and have it play through my car speakers.
I know Pioneer offers an amp to go along with this but since I already have a 4 channel amp for my speakers and sub could this be connected?

Here is the unit I am talking about.

I am going to be getting the oem JDM nav bezel. I know it will need some modding to fit right and I will have to make custom brackets for it as well. But I have seen it done and seems to not be too difficult and this unit looks to have everything I am looking for.
Anyone know what would be needed to get this unit to play all through my car speakers?
Thanks. Any info is helpful.

Well they don't sell a usdm bezel so will have to customize the jdm to make it angle to the drivers side with a heat gun or something..

good luck - save your money on the jdm bezel - you can not use it - going to have to build one from scratch, it has been done - search, a little wood, bondo, sanding and time.

The JDM bezel *can* be used, with slight modification (heat gun, like mentioned above). There's at least one thread on the first page that shows it being done.

EDIT: Got pushed down a bit further than I thought.

Many many people have used the jdm bezel with a little modifications so it can absolutely be used.
I have seen some in person with the jdm bezel and looks good.
