Default Replacement Radio w/Hi-Tech Screen

I'm thinking about replacing my Bose stereo that came OEM on my 2002 convertible.

I'd like to get something that works via Bluetooth with my iPhone.

I don't recall where I saw it, but I remember seeing a stereo control that had a Corvette flag emblem on the screen when the unit was off (it may have been a newer Vette).

Has anyone seen something like this for a C5?

Search double din and you will find plenty of info!

Dennis at DoubleD Mods can give you plenty of info. I have a Kenwood going in this spring!

Many of the new units you can download images to. I've seen several with the C5 logo on the screen.

Thats an old post, I do remember it. It was in a DYI (I think) I remember it being that a user changed it via blue tooth or something to upload it the the radio

I made those start up screen overlays. I did not like the default start up screen. Uploaded them to the head unit. I can then select which start up I want. I can change the look from time to time just to make it new and fresh. I don't bench mark any of my threads or posts.

Dennis is the man to talk to about audio systems, and that screen display by E-T is very .

That head unit of mine is no longer available. Dennis could get you an upgraded unit similar to mine... so you are not going to get exactly...
Mine is a Kenwood DNX690HD

Had to call DD today to find out when my new radio and bezel were due to be shipped. Not because I'm in a rush but leaving town to Pittsburgh for a week, sure enough they were ready to ship, so had to tell them to hold til I get back !!!!!! I'm so excited to install !!!!!!!
