stay away from boss

don't buy this product. spend a little more and get a pioneer. i ordered one, when i installed it, it didn't work correctly, sent it back got another one, did the exact same thing. took it to a shop and they checked it out and it kept having the same problem. they said the radio was bad and that its common in boss units(power problem, keeps going into reset mode). went and got a pioneer and never had a problem.

Good on paper

Looks great and sounds great when it works, but the am/fm function only worked for a couple of minutes, before it was lost completely. Unplugging and re-inserting the antenna doesn't fix it. The unit resets itself half of the time when starting the car and forgetting all settings and time. Wouldn't be that bad if the backlight didn't turn off as well. After a couple months of owning it, the aux inputs are dying as well. Definitely not buying another one.
