Stinger elev8 stereo

Been looking to upgrade to this head unit.. any feedback?..

 

The guys at Five Star Car Stereo down in Clearwater FL did one in a 3rd gen and seemed to like it a lot.

Looks really bad.. i like it
.

 

I'd hold off a bit, the unit is way too new.

 

never heard of stinger, but that looks like a pain in the ass to install

 

Stinger is part of AAMP Global/ of America, Link below shows all their brands.

Yeah stinger is a HUGE brand but they’ve never ventured into the head unit market until now. AAMP’s brands have been making nearly everything imaginable for stereo installs (they compete with Metra and PAC) and they wanted a product that didn’t exist, so they made it

 

Looks neat

 

I put one in my Tacoma I love it!

 

Plug and play..or what else do i need?

 

Arent u same guy posted on facebook?..

 

I did post on Facebook a while back! And it’s not plug and play you will need to buy a radio harness,backup camera harness, antenna adapter and factory USB adapter. The swc are built into the radio and I also chose to flush mount it using a router some body filler and paint. But that’s optional you can just buy a dashkit and have the screen float in front of your dash

 

You got any pictures of the headunit install? Ive been thinking of ditching my android unit for either the elev8 or the alpine halo9.

 

If your going to look at the elev8 then you should wait to see the 10in that they will be releasing. That is.... if you can wait.

 

10 inch wont flush mount though, too big.

 

I have 2 of the 10 inch on order for the shop when I get them in I’ll see if I can flush it somehow

 

No I don’t sorry I did the install at like 3am after I finished a big job for a customer and I didn’t want to drive home(1-1/2) hour drive and have to drive back in the morning for work so I just did my truck but if you have. Router table a flush trim bit and fab skill the whole job took me 2 hours

 

Does the HDMI output allow you to mirror your phone to play movies or watch videos while driving?
