Hey all, I'm looking at replacing the stock head unit with something aftermarket. Looks like there is some cool touch screen stuff with bluetooth, ect.

Has anyone replaced their stock unit? Thoughts?

 

I have Kenwood Excelon DNX8120's in all of my vehicles and absolutely love them. They are older (2008).

I recently put a Kenwood into my moms RX350 and she loves it. I have even considered getting newer kenwood's due to the tech.

I have done car audio for 15+years and Kenwood has always been in my top 5 favorites
These are all Double Dins.

 

Thanks 850Lexus!

 

The reviews for that Kenwood are horrible...

 

i have a kenwood in mine as well. i love it.

 

pioneer avh4400

 

I have Alpine 928 8" double din and love it. Had to build custom bezel for dash kit but well worth it or you can get the Alpine 927 which is the 7" version. The ladies love the extra inch lol

Did any of you guys have an issues with integrating this unit with the factory amp / speakers?

 

google nexus tablet

on a gs 430 and yes its bad ***

 

I'm pretty sure it's not possible to integrate them with the stock amp, although I could be wrong. Im just replacing everything...

 

the stock radio is too old school to be using, unless you only listen to am/fm and cd.

 

forgot cassete my dudes


i ripped mine out and i couldnt be happier using the cassete as a aux in was strait killing me

 

yeah the main reason for ripping mine out was the transition from CDs to iPod and flash media (SD cards,flash drives).

 

Yeah I plan on installing the jvc 6.1" DD cd/dvd shortly. Im tired of my stock and using that heavy *** cd booklet. Think its running about $250 now. I want that because aux is in the front. Wanted a oem double din kit but ive noticed it doesnt come with the bezel to make radio look flush. Guess metra it is
