I hope he is.

If it were not for my little ones I would have been looking at that car. I actually have, but not for too long. That thing is sweet.

I'm surprised you didn't get further into it Juan. There is alot of rear seat room, and tons of trunk space.....


As far as the stereo goes, one step at a time fella's. First gonna get my 860mp transferred over, I just have to find a dash kit, and see about retaining my stock steering wheel controls. Then I'll probably leave the rear doors and the rear deck speakers stock, and add PROBABLY/POSSIBLY germanium's to the front doors with my 4150xxk. No sub this time around.

Thanks for the comments!



I tell you guys though, getting used to the wheel spin in 1st is pretty hard

Ya I realized that, we'll get together once you get back. Install the HU if you can fit me in on a saturday. BTW anyway to keep the steering wheel audio controls active with the pioneer without any type of delay effect etc?

Thats fine then, I can deal without them for now, got the wireless remote anyways, AND the pioneer wheel remote. What head units COULD work with the stock controls?

ANy COULD work, but you said "no delay". So then it would be of course Eclipse. Keep sleepin on em and they keep passin you by.

No but it wouldn't hurt to do it on this car

I'm contemplating sub in this car but I just don't know if I want to use any of my trunk up this time around.

Don, or anyone with experience how bad is the delay on the steering wheel controls? I think I'll go ahead and get the steering wheel controls wired up.

Mendon, I decided this time that I would go for a new(er) car and this just ended up being the perfect choice for me which happened to be this car.

The delay sucks. Also make sure you mount the repeater in plain view of the radio, and avoid sunlight anytime possible when you attempt to use it.

On a side note, I dont worry about any of these issues.

LOL well, forget about the stock steering wheel controls. I'll use my steering wheel remote. Looking forward to getting the head unit in

My first two head units were Pioneer. Don't get me wrong they are great units, never had a problem with them.

But for the price which is about the same as a low end Eclipse CD series, the SEAMLESS steering wheel controls and the warranty, I'll take Eclipse.

You're changing from Maxi to Alti, might as well change up your preferences.
Juuuust for ***** and giggles.
