Re: Head unit question...very important..

uhhhm lookinga t your equipment list it seems you will need an amp. I think you can still use the factory one (I am not sure if it is part of the stock headunit or not). Speakers will not work without an amplifier of some sort... Nice deck though

oops sorry didn't notice the year of your car. That sucks though. The Jensen should be fine with the stock speakers, but you will probably want to upgrade the amp and speakers very soon to stack up to your shiny new Alpine HU

Does anything come with the headunit that indicates which phones it will interface with? I've heard nokia phones, but I'm not sure which ones??? Modle numbers??

Hey Horny, found this site, thought you might be interested.

SBHCorp.com

Has anyone done business with them before?? They have the 7998 listed at $589.
