Amazing Deal!!

Not really one to write reviews - but, this is probably the best piece of business I have done in a while. Bought it for my 2010 VW Golf City to replace a system that I bought a few months ago. I have a friend who installs navi systems and recommended Sonic Electronix. When I first saw the Pyle - it seemed to good be too good to be true for the price. Yet, after reading reviews from various websites - the majority were very positive. I played around with it to familiarize myself with the functions and was blown away with the amount of features. I like the Bluetooth and the fact I can play all my music from my iPhone 4S wirelessly. I could even listen to Internet radio. I tried the GPS and it was extremely accurate with the voice directions. I was even able to add a 16GB SD Card filled with Mp3's and video files which it read very quickly. If you're looking for a reasonably priced system with all the features - get this one without a doubt. Also, in dealing with Sonic Electronix Customer Service Staff - friendly & professional. To finish off, the only negative for me was the lack of a Cage to fit in the dash. I modified my present one, but need to purchase the correct model as it is sticking out slightly. Reading a review on their website - SE has a pioneer model for $39.99 that should do the job.

Not bad

If you are thinking of putting this in a new Dodge Ram, stop. This unit does not fit without major re-construction. I had to carve away a lot of plastic at the old radio mount, then I had to cut the metal bracket inside the dash with tin snips, then, after ready for install, the outside panel opening did not allow enough clearance for the front panel to open and close without binding up. After a lot of trimming and a boogered up front panel, the unit is finally installed but now I have to come up with a creative way to cover up damage. Forget the face plate, that is useless. Some good things, the problem that everyone was having with the sound and the GPS issues while playing music is non existent with this unit. It works fine. Car logos are terrible. A lot of cars listed that I never heard of and no Dodge Ram logo at all. Wiring the unit was a piece of cake and it was my first aftermarket radio install ever. E-brake wire will ground to the unit to allow DVD play so, don't go buy anything extra to make that happen. So far I have tested the SD card play, the bluetooth, and the GPS. All three of those work so far, bluetooth set up was a bit of a task with a Galaxy note, took a couple of tries but got it. The unit is too high. The mounting kit that I got with it was sufficient enough to cover the normal width opening as this unit is not as wide as the stock unit, but the height is way off. Sound is good, but I will need to upgrade my speakers, already planned on it, as my stock speakers cannot handle the unit at too high of a volume. Touch screen is a bit troublesome, especially when looking for your car logo and background items. I still have to play with some settings, but, I'll figure it out. Overall, pretty happy with it except alterations to the vehicle. I don't think the unit would have sit as flush as I would have liked, but, for the price, it looks good in there and will look better when I can figure out how to trim it out to hide the scars.
