If I upgrade the stereo in this truck, I have to get something that looks stock. Wife's orders. She hates aftermarket stereos if they don't look right.

 

after spending 20+ minutes responding to PM's from cheap ass mericans I decided the potential $4 profit wasn't worth my time.
IMO single din head units don't look right in 2nd gens.

 

I'm not too concerned about that, the dash kit is close enough for me. Only thing I want is to make sure the unit I buy has colours similar to the stock dash lights

I hate the look of stock lights against some other bright colour lol

 

Re-do your gauges in your truck? I wanted to when I had the old truck.

 

My only concern with the dd units is scratching of the screen. How's your unit work in the cold? Any issues with lag or sensitivity?

 

I don't trust my self to do it and I can't find anywhere here to do it for a reasonable price

 

the touch screen works fine in the cold, works surprisingly well while I'm wearing gloves.

 

That sucks. Not good with a soldering iron yet? I had a week long course on just soldering small stuff for work. Still would rather have an extra cluster to mess with if I was doing it.

 

Hmm good to know

No don't use a soldering iron too often. I tried to find a spare cluster and they wanted way too much for it at a scrap yard

 

Looking at this sdin

$280 for that double din is stupid cheap.

 

Sold out now so ill end up paying reg price for it anyways

 

if you want to keep satellite radio you'll need one that's satellite radio ready, doesn't look like either head unit you posted is sat radio ready.

 

I don't care for sat radio. Had it for years and sick of the repetitiveness of it. No better then standard radio IMO

 

And I could always use the aux plug for my current unit

 

Lisa must be passed out in a snow bank somewhere now lol

 

Well she was drunken snow shoeing, who knows where she ended up.... She may have gotten lost on the way to her special cabin

 

Chinese food has been ordered

 

Ugh, I'm fricken freezing and it's 68* in here. Wth is wrong with me. (Don't answer )
