I've got the JVC KD-SH99 in my car and love it.



The Alpine is probably the nicest, but it costs twice as much and that wasn't in my budget.

Sorry...no pics of the head unit in my car.

I posted these pictures in a a thread a few days ago. I used Alpine stuff exclusively, except for the subs. I didn't have that kinna money. The deck didn't even have the ability to run speakers, rca only. It was only meant to be wired to amps. Strictly competition, but I bought it used for a steal.

I bought it online for a bit over $300, I believe. That was back in September, I think.
