    Default New head unit in your vehicle?

    I'm rolling stock, but I'm curious how many members on here have put an aftermarket head unit in their truck or suv? If you have, describe what you installed and snap a pic if you would.

    I have a panasonic head unit in my sierra. nothing special my uncle was getting rid of his old Z71 and said I could take it.

    By the way steve, I was in Cape Cod this passed week and a trailblazer passed me with dual exhaust. Have you ever heard of or seen this before? I know it was a first time for me. Sorry to get off topic.

    in my suburban I'm running a cheap audiovox rampage head unit with a 10 disc changer. It's a POS, but the radio came in my very first car (ford contour). The changer came from my best friend, and it just happened to be an audiovox too so it interfaces with the radio. I'm planning on replacing my existing radio with a pioneer video head after I install a sub and build a custom center console.

    What did you mount this in? Your avatar looks like a newer Silverado but what year and cab style?

    Nice system BTW, I want one

    i have to upload my truck on there lol

    Its an 07 Silverado classic reg cab 8' long box. only because i had to settle for reg cab for the 8' long bed for work, i coulda got extended short bed for the same price base model, but then i wouldnt have had the features/8' bed. and the deal i got was somethign you just dont let slip away.

    I see you have a crew cab, my fav set up for a crew cab is the entire box under the seat. Ive done some work myself on a crew cab, I used 3/4 mdf, cut out the tranny hump, lined it with the same leather on the bottom of the seat, and just like someone else on here she got someone to etch in GMC on some 1/2 " plexy cut out a hole and mounted it there. Hooked up a couple leds in there with a controller so she can choose steady light or with the beat sorta thing, Then she bought 2 12's and we put those facing up. and for her 2 amps, and component controllers, i made an exact inset on the top of the box where they were being lined up so there is abolutely no visible wiring.
