Default Beat Sonic Kit Pricing

Does anyone know the best place to get a decent deal on a Beat Sonic kit? Im thinking about upgrading my system to the new Pioneer Avic-X930bt and would need the Beat-Sonic MVA-24L kit for the install. I didnt think the dash kit would cost as much as the pioneer unit but I figured I'd ask on here just incase someone has a hook up.

My kit with face plate was about 275 or so at beatsonicusa, is the one for the 430 higher? It works flawlessly though. They were pretty much the same price as Amazon and eBay.

I dealt with Japan directly, and the guys are awesome...really helpful, but I think they use google translate to communicate

On the end, there wasn't a big price difference for the kit sold by USA or Japan (I had to go JP as USA didn't ship to South Africa)...

If you have nav youll need the MVA-23/24 kit from beatsonic. It replaces the stock radio/cd changer but retains the factory touch screen and its functions for climate and such (see ViPCeo post).

Hey Ray123, im guessing you only purchased the dash kit? Did you make your own custom wiring harness?
