well i had a weak moment
I was talking to the wife about the ipod ready HU we bought a couple weeks ago and we were discussing how much of a pain it was to select songs .. because the unit disables the ability to browse on the ipod itself.. so was like we should bring it back and get a different head unit.. for only 40-50 more than we spent we can get an in dash double din DVD player... she was like sure
so i did it lol http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=370098733273 should be here in the next few days.. :) New pics:

it was only 251 shipped :)
i was looking at a couple others in the same price range that also had a built in TV tuner and played DivX movies and other perks but really didnt want to buy one that ships from hong kong would much rather deal with someone in the US

on this site http://www.skyworthauto.com/english/...t.asp?prono=17 it says the unit has gps navigation... on the ebay page it doesnt .. i wonder if mine will.. that will be a sick purchase if it does :)

Let us know how good the unit is. I'm a little iffy since it's a brand I've never heard of. But that's a sick deal and I would seriously consider a purchase if it's a decent hu.

back when i was 17 i bought a no name LCD tv for my truck and i loved it . it was cheap like $100 bux and the quality was awesome .. i used one of those blaukpunt stand along eve players for the truck and it was great... sometimes you just have to take the chance :)
most of these electronics are made by the same people that make the sony/pioneer .. the bigger companies just pay to put their name on the units.. i'd rather cut out the middle man and save a bundle on the unit

i'll defintely post my experience with it. The one thing i was sure to check was to make sure it was high def.. the ones that really suck are the 480p ones like the pyle and such.. some of them have horrible graphics

I'm sure there was something else that was causing horrible image quality. |

on the manufactures site it says it has nav .. but the ebay listing didnt list that it does.. so maybe the manufacturer site had a newer version or something .. I'll know when i get the unit this week.. i'll post a nice review of it after i play with it :)
