Im looking to get a better radio for my 01 max and dont know what wil fit. I found this. Pioneer avh-p2400bt
Can anyone tell me if it will fit. I looked on crutchfield and it says it wont fit but ive seen pics of people using it. Can anyone help? What radio are u using? And whats a good radio with a wide screen?

 

It will fit, depending on which dash kit you go with. The GXE kit is by far the best. I have Pioneer double din in there, I believe AVH-p3200bt? Fits beautifully

 

Is that what they call them? Double din? Im looking for something with a big screen that will fit nice

 

in terms of crutchfield..there are often times you cant just assume theyre right.

 

Yeah i looked on crutchfield and some say they wont fit but i see people using them

 

Crutchfield is useful for information, sometimes. Way overpriced on their items, though.

The GXE kit makes a double-din head unit fit more flush in the dash. The Metra dash kit leaves a little bit of a gap.

Do you have a Bose system in your car, currently? If you don't have Bose, it'll be a lot less of a headache to switch to aftermarket

 

No i dont have bose. This is whats in it now

 

you need a head unit that has double din, it basically takes up 2 spaces instead of 1.. so yea, the Pioneer avh-p2400bt will fit

 

Nice. Ok thanks i will get that

 

makes me want to get one too now, haha.. ohh and btw, your check engine light is on.. might want to go get that checked

 

Yeah i know lol the parts were actually on order. I was just tryin the car out when i took that pic. I will have the car this weekend. Its in the shop getting painted

 

Yeah i know lol. I was just testing the car out the day i took that pic. The parts are in and the car is ready. Just waiting for the paint to be done.

 

nice! congrats on your new ride man, hopefully it won't be a new headache.. i kid, i kid

 

Between the 3 cars i have bought off my dealer i havent had any headaches yet lol. Always been treated good. But u never know right?

 

Check out onlinecarstereo dot com. Their prices are usually awesome, depending on how new the item is. I've bought quite a bit of stuff from them, shipping times are good, can't vouche for Cust. Service as I've never had any reason to call them.

 

Thanks chuck, il look into them for sure. Ive become really close to this site. As i seem to be gettin lots of good info. I will never buy anything but nissan lol.

 

Yeah man, if the guys on this forum can't help you you're pretty much S.O.L. There's a bunch of info, sometimes it's hard to find but the SEARCH bar at the top is great. Also, not sure if you were aware but once you go into a forum like "5th Gen Maxima Discussion" you can then click on "Search this Forum" and you'll get just search results within the "5th Gen Maxima Discussion" section. I'm still a newbie myself. Make sure you read all the "Stickies" and "How-To" Sections when you have some free time, they may answer questions that you didn't even know you had!

 

Ok good to know. I use the iphone app so im not sure if t does all that but il check it out

 

I was able to find the search bar but every time i try it it says theres an error

 

Where Could I Get A GXE Dash Kit?

 

Ebay has them for 15.00

 

GXE dash kit for $15, I doubt it. They have the generic Scosche or Metra for that price. The fitment is not great but it works out just fine.
