WORKS FOR MORE APPLICATIONS THAN STATED
These are great head units. Multi-color display, good Ipod/Iphone interface as well as aux. in for other phones and devices. 50watts of good power to run top end. Two important things to note. I installed in a '79 Bronco and Sonic's selection guide says that it is not compatible for this application but it is. There are a couple leads in the harness you won't use (power antenna, and steering wheel controls) and you will need a plastic cover plate to cover voids in dash but these are cheap to buy. The other thing worth noting is that the wiring harness is exactly the same as similar Kenwood decks 8-9 years ago. I replaced an old one with this one and literally could just plug the new unit into the old harness. I didn't have to splice one wire!

Great Product!
Pros: Variable text color changing, 3 4v outputs, hp and lp filters. And I dont know how some people cant see during the day, cause I can see it just fine.
Cons: Cant think of any!
