    Can anyone recommend a good head unit for a 2011 Dbl Cab?

    Heres what im looking for:

    Double Dinn
    Sat Radio
    Hands free calling - Very important
    ipod/iphone 4s connection

    What I dont need:

    Navagation
    DVD playback

    I have looked at the Clarion CX501 and the Kenwood DDX419. The clarion was almost too basic, I did however like the kenwood. Im looking to be at $500 or less for the HU.
    Thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Just put the Kenwood DDX419 in my vehicle. Love it so far. You'll need to add the sat radio antenna option from Kenwood to get it to work with sat radio. Also a steering wheel control adapter if you have the steering wheel buttons ($60.)

    I have the JVC KW-AVX840 7" Double-Din and it has everything you want but it does have the DVD. Works great with my iPhone for both calling and Bluetooth wireless music streaming. It also has a removable face plate. And its really reasonably priced. Check it out. You won't be disappointed
