Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This headunit is great. Everything runs and sounds great. There are only two problems I have with it: I installed it myself, and I had an extremely hard time connecting the brake cord to my trucks parking brake signal cord, and as of now, I have yet to get it connected. The other problem is the iPod interface. It loads very quickly, but the scrolling is not very intuitive and it takes a very long time to scroll through the song/artist/album lists. Other than that, though, this is an extremely easy to use unit that is well worth the cost.
