Default Witch one to get?


Hey guys, I got about 250-300 for a head unit. I know how to install them but I really don't know anything when im looking at them lol. So with that said Im looking for something in that price range it can be slightly outside of it just nothing crazy.

Things it needs to have.

Compatibility with Iphone4
I don't want any front usb ports I want to run the wire for my Iphone to the cub holder form the back of the head unit.
I don't want to use Cd's again so It doesn't really need to take Cd's
that's pretty much it.

So please give me a hand with some suggestions that are good for what I need.
Plus any other features that are extra I guess would be nice.

Thanks guys

True , its iphone4 compatible do you gotta buy any extra stuf to make it work.

I know a harness to wire it up easeir but do I have to buy anything else to wire my iphone to it or anything? Also will it charge the phone while using it?

Take a look at the JVC KD-A815. It has front and rear USB ports and Bluetooth for the iPhone.

I bought mine from Crutchfield.

Definitely the iDA series. I have an iDA x303 in my car and love it. You will need to get the Modifry DCI kit to have it work with the dash controls. You will also need the Honda harness to wire it up. That should be all you need to get it to work.

kenwood KDC-X994

Im an avid Alpine user too but lately alpine has been a disapointment to me. I got the top of the line alpine w900 in the truck and had an alpine in the cd player in the civic. I changed to the kenwood and loved it. Plus the x994 bluetooth works really good.

but dont base your decision on mines. Look what you like and do some research and read reviews on them.

yea im going to wait on the dci cause i might just get rid of my controls and put a gauge there like custom fab something up. But as for the harness im going to buy the plug and play off modifry
