2DIN Radio
#2
I have had both a 2DIN 7" screen (Alpine) and a single DIN 7" motorized (Pioneer) in my 1gen.. I currently have the single DIN 7" screen in my car, but honestly, I preferred the 2DIN 7" screen more. I thought it was a cleaner look. The fitment was great.

I found a double din dash kit from ebay $15 (METRA 95-8156)
google : METRA 95-8156
I like the bluetooth, usb and ipod inputs. now I have to upgrade the sub amp.

That Pioneer unit, that is linked above looks very nice. I am also shopping to find a double din unit myself. Thought of the carputer route, but than again dont spend that much time IN my car to have it to be of much use.

My thoughts on the Pioneer FH-P800BT
That's what I was thinking. I didn't need gps, I have a tomtom one that I can transfer from car to car. I thought about a dvd player (@$400-to ?)but then how much dvd watching was I going to do while driving. Plus I already have a portable dvd player. I am pleased with this pioneer player. It has a usb in, that I routed the cable to the center console. I did the same with the aux in cable. This unit will search and list all of the music on any thumb drive attached to it. Displaying the artist and song/album. The bluetooth is cool, when ever I get in the car stereo phone option ( handsfree ) will recognize it and links too it. In addition, the bluetooth will connect to my mini laptop (EEEPC 901) and will play all of the music on that too. For $250 I thought it was a great replacement.
