It has sat. cap., and aux inputs for an ipod and so on, It took me awhile to decide if I wanted a double din, but then I realized I didn't need the navigation system. So, I went this route. I only replaced the head unit, but there is a difference. The guy at the shop told me a more powerful amp in the future would help it even more. I mainly wanted to make it look better than the stock radio, and it has a full color display which even shows the album artwork when playing cd's and the ipod.

Questions about your head unit.

1. What model number?
2. Does it have the 7 band equalizer?
3. Is the face motorized or does it just fall open?

face is motorized, has the equalizer, not sure of the exact model number. Have to check. I bought it from a private owner who only used it for 1 month before selling the car it was in. I got the head unit for only 100 bucks
