I'm planning it, but still trying to budget and work everything out. The problem with audio is I'm still new to everything and still learning a lot. I want to do all my research before making a decision. There's just WAYYYYY too many options. I want something sensible that performs well, but is also show-worthy as well. Just trying to find that balance.

I went all in ....... got a Bit One Processor $$$$$ so that I could still keep all of my Navi and steering wheel controls intact and still add a couple of amps to run my 3 way system. Money well spent but it was pricey.

Most likely. Been having too many issues with shops and others working on my car and doing really bad jobs. Been very frustrating and costly in the end. And what sucks is i didn't skimp on paying for services. It's just the work was shoddy when i expected AND paid for professional level services. I guess the only person you can guarantee is gonna take care of your car is yourself.

I want to figure out a way to incorporate my nexus 7 into the dash. I have a few theories, but I'm no Ben Heck :-)

Even with my Android phone; I still miss my Navi...

So sorry to hear about your problems with shoddy service, I try to do everything myself just because of that. The best of luck to you finding a good service shop and when you do, tell them how good they are and write a nice letter to everyone who helped.
