Default Need nav/audio suggestion 2004

I just bought a 2004 convertible and would like to replace the stock audio unit with a navigation/blue tooth unit. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Contact Dennis at Double D Mods for a system. He can also mod your bezel at the same time.

Dennis is the place to start. I have one of the first double din bezels he made and it still looks great. When I did this I had to order parts from three or four different vendors to get my set up, now Dennis can handle it all for you.
My set up is the double din bezel with carbon fiber hydrocarbon finish and a Pioneer Avic-F900BT head unit. I was so happy with the Pioneer unit that I am upgrading to the newest and larger screen unit, the Z130.

So I would reach out to Dennis for the bezel and all the audio stuff you need.

If you are interested I will be selling my Avic-F900BT once I get the Vette back from the shop. PM for details, as I don't want to hijack your thread.

I agree with all the above.......

I bought everything I needed for my dbl din install from Dennis....


But I will add, I am partial to the Kenwood units for the Garmin Nav portion.

I not only put a Kenwood in my Vette, I bought another Kenwood from Dennis to put in my Dodge truck.

It's a great mod, you'll love it...

i went with a pioneer a110bt (which is now z130), and i really like it alot. built in NAV and i added sirius radio. in addition it is a dvd player, etc. if you have a convertible, keep in mind that any of the touch screen or NAV screen in dash units will be a bit tougher to see with the top down during the day. the NAV talks to you so no big deal once you have it set up, and unless you are "button pusher" with the radio, that's not a big deal either. dennis is the man. great products and great customer service. you won't be sorry with either decision (him and the change over).
