...stereo. I was trying to get my ipod cable working the other day so I took my nice sony deck out to check the fuse on the cable and it worked just fine for another day, then suddenly just wouldn't turn on when I left MAP today. :( Anna bought me this deck for my bday like 6 years ago, I had it in my 1G, in my 2G, and my evo. It served me well, and I have had no real reason to upgrade it.
Anyways, I fiddled with it a bunch and could not get it to come back to life for any decent amount of time, so I thought about letting it sit in the car and rocking no stereo until I found a replacement. Then I remembered I had my stock SSL alpine**edit**infinity deck in my garage, so I slapped it in when I got home tonight. In the 3 years I've owned it, I *think* this is the first stock part I can remember putting back on my evo.
Now to shop for a new deck :)

Stock SSL is Infinity ;)
Anyway, I really like the Alpine deck I have with iPod controls, but I've also always been a fan of Kenwood decks. Zac also just bought a really nice Pioneer with built-in Bluetooth and iPod controls.

Gah scheides fail.
IDK what I want, feel free to post up links to ideas!
Double din not out of the question, but it would get spensive b/c I'd have to relocate the hvac controls.

+1 for Kenwood, I love the deck in my car. The iPod controls are nice, especially for trips with passengers, but I really just use the USB for flash drives loaded with music.

Aww, thx! :D I'm not a huge fan of the Alpine decks, styling is not for me.
Ultimately I want something that's clean, not too flashy when turned off, has easy to access radio presets and a nice ipod interface. I used kracka's Alpine ipod interface and we couldn't figure out how to play anything but a random track LOL.
I'll prolly wait a bit and just rock the stock deck...hrm, maybe hold out for xmas, evo mod money is saving for clutch and snow tires for the GLI...
Anyone played with one of these?
