Great stereo, a little bouncy
Stereo install was mostly straight forward, although the screen instructions could be better. There is a picture showing where four screws go in to secure it to the unit, I still can’t tell where two of them go. There are more holes than screws but there aren’t four holes on top of the unit at all, especially not within the are they show.
My main complaint is actually not with the stereo but with the way it connects to the dash kit. It really isn’t a very solid supporting kit fit this stereo and while adjusting the screen it’s easy for it to pop partly out of the dash. The way the stereo can be pulled straight out without disassembly of any kind isn’t ideal especially for a stereo with a large heavy screen on it. I might just glue it so it won’t come out unless I take the dash apart.
Possibly due to the install kit issues but more likely just due to such a large screen, it’s a little shaky while driving. This might also be an issue because of my car, which has fairly stiff suspension compared to many other cars. Not a huge issue but something that I didn’t thinks of ahead of time.
Overall I am pleased with this unit, the screen is great and very easily visible. The sound is much better than the cheaper kenwood that I replaced with it. Best part is that it has actual buttons for volume and skip forward shed back. I’m happy with it overall.
