Default Deciding what hu to get double din or single.

I am having a big stress over on what hu to get. I dont kno if i should get a double din or a single din. Alpine or pioneer. Well i have 1300 dallors to spend it on. I really like the simple designs of alpine but pioneer has more features. pioneer the http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_6630.html n3 comes with navigation. and the alpine IVA-D310 DVD 7" Monitor dont. The other hard part is both of these are'nt double din. I like the looks of double din's too but not really sure on what to get. I also have another question for you guyz, where does the rear view camera for navigation is installed at if anyone has a picture can yu post it up kthx.

Look into the Alpine IVA-W200, its a double din unit and fits very nicely with the jdm dash kit. You can pick it up online for under a $1000.

If the original question is single DIN vs double DIN, why add all those specs?

And I vote double DIN.
