    I did do a search.

    I would like some opinions on the best for the money double din receiver for my taco for under $500. Any input will be much appreciated, pics even better, links also good.

    thanks

    the reason for the post is to get a model number of good one to eBay. Hence, the question best double din.

    I am looking for the biggest screen available for a double din, dvd player maybe gps and a good brand such as alpine or pioneer, is that possible for under $500?

    thanks

    You will have trouble finding a DVD and GPS unit for $500 even on ebay. For that combo, you're probably looking at between $600 and $750. You could get just a DVD 7" screen for around $400. I saw a few JVC models for around that price with detachable face.

    factory aux? this deck came with a usb connection so I hooked up a spare ipod cable I had to it, then I ran it inside the console and it comes out underneath the console in between the driver seat and the console. I just tucked the wire underneath the console with my fingers then I set the ipod in one of the cup holders, and I have full control of the ipod on the deck, dont have to touch it unless my phone rings.
