The Pioneer AVH-P4300?? That is a bad ass deck, has APP Mode that allows you to connect your iphone and watch netflix movies.

Yup scored it for $399 brand new from sonic electronix, had been on backorder forever now the normal price is $494 but since I ordered it last month there gonna honor the $399

Right now I'm looking at the "all-in-one" systems that come with nav and bluetooth already installed. Looking at the Pioneer AVIC-X920BT. Also looked at the more moderately priced Clarion NZ500 but I don't think I like the idea of the flip out face. Any other ideas on "all-in-one" systems which look sleek and are a good bang for the buck? All I need is CD, Nav, bluetooth and for it to make me look cool (i.e black) lol. DVD is nice but I can't ever picture myself watching a DVD in my truck!!

another option is check out crutchfield because they send you detailed instructions to install whatever you buy from them and they offer support as well.... all included in purchase.... if you wanna learn to do it yourself

Pretty sure a self install is above me right now. Would love to learn but don't think this is the time. I might go in and sit in on the install though to pick up some info....!

Next time round I'll try a self install. This is a package deal for me including the alarm install and I'm sure as hell not attempting that!!
