Pioneer which model?

[eddienyr]

Which model do you recommend to replace the stock HU? Can I replace the stock speaker for some better ones without having to mod my 460 setup? If so what brand and what type of speakers do I need to buy?

I would recommend ditching Pioneer and going with Alpine. Better yet, find a head unit that caters to iPod's....

Just my suggestion.

Pioner deh-7600mp works great looks awesome

 

[eddienyr]

does it come with a steering wheel remote?

 

[Scorcher2005]

it comes with a remote that you can velcro to the steering wheel.

I saw one that mounted to the wheel I guess it was from a different brand of stereo

I'm looking at the DEH-P6700MP.

Cardomain.com has their own store and everythings on sale.

As for wiring go to Circuit City. They have cables for aftermarket HU so that you don't have to splice wires and that way if you need/want to put the factory HU back in you just have to plug it back in. My friend just got the DEH-1600 (Wal-Mart)for his '89 Chevy Celebrity (just wanted a cheap HU) and cables from Circuit City's Roadshop.

Took us longer to figure out how to put the universal faceplate adapter together than to connect the HU.

I dont care for ALpine,i have been in the industry for a while ans see too much stuff from Alpine go bad,Pioneer ahs some good stuff,but the 9600 is one of the better high end unitsl

iPod

iPod:
-20Gb
-cumbersome touch pad
-belt holster is optional (more $$)
-doesn't support WMA files (windows users)
-shuffle setting requires scrolling with wheel to setting
-12hr battery life
-$299

(don't forget the overpriced "only for iPod" accesories)


Creative Zen Touch:
-20Gb
-real buttons (and a touch slider)
-belt holster included
-supports WMA files (not AAC, but if you've never used iTunes, doesn't matter)
-shuffle button
-24hr battery life
-$249 (currently $234 at Cambridge Soundworks)

Not worth $65 to be trendy and bow to Apple to me (not that I'm fond of Bill Gates either).
