I dont know if this belongs in a fourth gen forum or not but im interested in getting this http://www.crutchfield.com/S-rdPbnKn...p?i=500IVAD300 for my maxima. Please letme know if im getting something good. Its gonna be a lil cheaper then that. But i have no experience with this whats so ever. If its not decent reccomend me another one, and some instalation intructions will be helpfull. Thanks guys.

 

we have a audio and electronics forum you know...

 

if you like alpine, (which i dont) it probably good quality. The screen is simply bad ***.

 

why dont you like alpine?

... sorry it doesn't relate to the thread...

 

Apline is a good manufacturer in cd players. Pretty good quality I would suggest on getting it. you cant go wrong with one.

alpine in my opinion is the best in car audio u can get.

 

Nismo98 how did u install urs? What do i have to buy or espect to pay in order to get it installed?

 

Harnes & a bypass to watch video while car is in motion.

Actually, if you want the best of both CD and DVD playback go with Kenwood Excelon series! They're customer service and attraction from girls will set you in your seat with only happiness....I'm also a little biased towards Kenwood so be that as it may, it is the best looking and best performing flipout available!

 

alpine is good, but also overpriced, usually

 

I thought kenwood screens were a POS? I'd personally go with a pioneer.

 

pioneer all the way..........or the new black panasonic, how much i wish i waited a year to get mine, oh well.

 

pioneer avic-n1

 

yea but your also running audiobahns....


i would go with the alpine iva-d300 or if u got the cash go with the d900, both are bad a$$

 

i have a kenwood excelon 907 flip out.. its good, touch screen.. ive had it for a wlong time now.. took it out my prelude and put it in the max....the only thing i dont like about these things is that u have to wait for the screen to warm up before it shows at its best quality.... im biased towards kenwood excelon products. but alpine is great also.. installation isnt hard at all, took me about 3 hrs (including running, hiding wires and setting up antennas for my tv tuner)... its simple..just requires patience and entails alot more wires than a regular cd player depending on what u get... but to get it professionally installed ur looking at around 250..

 

What would i need in order to install the Alpine? I know it need to be hooked up to the e-brake. is there a harness?

 

Go to any Circuit City or Best Buy, whatever in your area that sells car audio/video products. Get yourself a harness for your maxima and also pick up one of these if you want to watch video while you are driving.

wow thats alot!! Im sure if you have a good wiring sense you can hook it up and virtually bypass it without paying money? Or am i wrong?

 

You are right, but you would have to do it with switches. Every time you start your car, you would have to flip the switches.

i dont know how the alpines work, but on my kenwood it says to connect a wire to my ebrake so that i cant watch video while driving... all u have to do is ground that wire and voila...
