4000, would look so much cleaner and wouldnt interfere with A/C and heat controls

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

i have a guy that can mod the dash kit so it wont even be near the a/c and heat controls. It will be on the bottom right where the stock tape deck is at

The 4000 man. I say this because i have one myself and also the flip out is not nearly as clean as the DD.

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

U have one can i see some pics?

blazinrola80

iTrader: (1)

then DD all day.. only cuz the 2x screen look dosnt go to good... so if i were you i would get the double din and for get about the flip out..

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

yea i was thinking 4000 to gives the car a more luxurious look LOL

DC3328

iTrader: (22)

i was looking at that one to! im going through the same dilemma lol but im gonna get a single din, i dont need ppl seeing that big ol screen in my car, plus i already have a single din in there

im trying to choose between the 5000 or this one

i just started looking at these so there might be some better ones that i dont know about, please feel free to post suggestions

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

yea i was like that too i was like really want anyone seeing my screen, but the thing is the pioneer 5000 doesnt fully go back after it comes out. Check out Rajca i believe he has a flip up in his car and its kind of at a angle

DC3328

iTrader: (22)

do u have a link? and if that is a problem the jensen has a tilt control on it

torez

go with AVIC F900BT or F90BT all big issues are fixed now. I've got F700BT coz I dont care about DVD player - anyway I love it!
For little more I're gonna get Navi and bluetooth

In dash kit will look cleaner IMO.

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

yea thing is i wouldnt go and get the Jensen because i have all my stuff for pioneer bluetooth adapter and the XM radio, i have backup camera but its universal. A link to the 5000? yea

i really dont think you should get a flip out
they just look really cheesy and cheap.
kills the interior imo.

Unkn0VV17

I'll vote for the Double Din look, gives the interior a lot cleaner look.

03aspec

its either double din or go home.. we have such a massive opening for the stereo, might as well fill it up with something that uses up most of that space!

DC3328

iTrader: (22)

no i meant that^

VoLLy

iTrader: (8)

Pretty obvious now

DC3328

iTrader: (22)

how?

tegkid

iTrader: (7)

imo any single din setup looks cheap in our interiors. i just hate the look of all that wasted space filled with black plastic.
i don't even like double dins unless the kit was really well done like uncald4's.

i have an older avic N3 flip out. Everyone that sees the flipout loves it and I really like the giant screen. I got a great deal on the flip out but if money is not an issue get the DD, it looks cleaner. I leave the flip out open all the time.It does tilt but I rarely have to move it to adjust the heater controls. I do hide "stuff" in the slide out compartment since it's covered by the screen.

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

Well i have the 4000 in my room never touched im just thinking do i want to pay the money to have it installed or should i sell it and get the 5000. I know a guy that can mod the 5000 for me to make it not block the controls or the storage compartment, it would be down a little lower.

Chisox1 if possible can you show me some pics of yours?

4000 for sure. I have flip out and hate it. Sometimes when its really cold it'll get stuck shut and stuff. and doesn't look as clean at all

I use the spot under the radio for my Ipod adapter which was extra $ and the wires you see on the right are A/V auxiliary for Ipod Videos. My version doesn't play ipod video directly. I got lots of info at avic411.com like the bypass for DVD play etc.

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

Wow i kind of like that. But if i get a flip up im going to put it down there where your ipod stuff is at. Is it hard to see the screen?

CHISOX1

No problem seeing it, the only negative is that with the screen closed it sticks out too much. If you leave it open it looks better but might get jacked if your not careful.

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

yea now see if the screen sticks out a whole bunch people will kno what it is. My friend got his double din jacked and so did Acurakidd on here so im sitting here confused as can be thinking should i keep my 4000 or go ahead and get the 5000.

I dont know what to do i have until 5pm on sunday to decide thats when the pioneer ends. If there was a way to hide to DD deff i would do it!

DC3328

iTrader: (22)

if someone wants to steal ur radio, there gonna steal it, doesnt matter what u have but i think the dd's are more inviting to the crooks, if its an uneducated crook they might not notice the flipout

either way we're taking a risk putting these in, which sucks ass

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

yea that is true and the thing is people say that double din is hard to take because they mount it but my homie gots his jaked in 5 minutes out of his truck and he had an alarm. DD does make the car a little nicer but the flip up does stick out when it is closed.

Go with the flat screen install. That way you don't have to deal with the flip out covering your AC/Heat controls.

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

My installer can mod that he can put the flip up on the bottom instead of the top of the kit so it will not block anything.

phee

iTrader: (5)

if ur installer can do that then why not have him make a double din for the 4000 you already have?

CJITTY

Just order the custom faceplate from UNCALD4 and do double din...very easy

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

nah see thats not the problem i can get it made he can make it he already told me. My point is that i dont want my isshh getting jacked you know since that screen his hella visible.

OneCleanTL-S

I dont really like anything flip out, so the indash

Flipster23

iTrader: (15)

Well i was going to cancel my ebay selling on my deck but its to late now and there are ppl bidding so im getting a flip up i think i will feel more safer with that. I'll post pics when i get that installed and show you guys what a flip up modded looks like.

Audiovibe-Mike

Go with double din. flip outs are terrible(IMO). find some pics of both and you'll see for yourself. I have some pics of my double din on my car domain page.
