I am looking into this video screen head unit to buy. It is the latest model replacing the cva-1005. It is priced around 1000$ on ebay. I was wondering if anyone knew about it, and if it is worth that much money. Also if someone knows where to get a deal on one. Please let me know.

here is a picture of it

I have the IVA-C800 I like it a lot. The only thing I wish is that I could add XM radio directly to it through its extra input. But I think I have to go the RF way or add an extra HU that is XM ready. The newest IVA though it the 801 wich replaced the 800 there isnt much difference between the two so ive heard but you should go with what you want. I havent had any troubles with my unit yet.

 

cool, im still not sure wether to go with the alpine or a pioneer.. i can get them both for the same price.

 

Go with the Alpine.

 

I agree go with the Alpine

 

i will go with alpine if i can get it for a good deal. because right now the only conection i could find is with pioneer. and i only have a limited amount to spend.

 

Try Ebay I got both the IVAC800 and the DVA5205 for a very good package price.
