    Right on. How is it so far? Always been curious about reviews on these types of double dins.

    Sweet! That's nice! I just don't really have a need for a full roof rack.

    Right on. I had a pioneer double din touch screen with the same features 2 years ago. 2 months after install my truck was broken into and it was stolen. Just haven't got funds to drop $500 on another again so I kinda looked at these briefly. Just iffy about the quality for the price.

    I've done the standard High/Low headlights at the same time, Plastidipped Wheels, Map Lights on with Dome, Cup Holder leds, 5% Front Window Tint, removed white "4X4" from mud flaps, de-badged, black out emblem, etc.

    I wanted to show some of the less common things:
    This is "Light in Sight" - a fresnel lens that allows you to see the traffic light if you are the first at the intersection - without bending down to look through the middle of the windshield. Tall guys know what I am talking about.

    I added a "Fold-a-Cover" that allows access from the back and the front of the bed, lockable and pretty darned water-tight.

    Everybody buys one of those spring shades to protect their dash...but no one uses them after the first week because of the hassle. This is "The Original Shade" and it retracts to the passenger side, almost out of sight. Easy to use.

    The screen on the Entune unit is very difficult to read in direct sunlight. I built a hood, attached by two very small dots of velcro, that stores on the back of the visor.

    And finally, a phone mount that I made from strap aluminum and a belt clip holster. In the power outlet is a rechargeable flashlight.

    Deductible is $500 and the unit before installation was $370 so not really worth it.

    Now that's what I call unique stuff. Not too many people post stuff like that, from what I've seen anyway. I like it, nice touch on the shade for the screen!
