Question about a few things on a CL-S
Hey Guys,
I just got my CL-S yesterday & there are a few things I am having done to it as we speak but need some advice.
My car came with every option available except the Navagation and I am wanting to buy a Navi system to have installed. Does anyone have any recommendations? I am also wanting to have a DVD player unstalled in the headrest for my little boy but I dont want anything that wont match my interior. Does anyone know where I could get a DVD player in a headrest that matches my interior or will they have to cut on mine?
Also would you go with 35% vs 15% window tinting. My eyes are sensitive to light but I live in the great state of Mississippi & they have this stupid rule about the window tinting. Should I risk it?

Metra makes a double DIN kit for the stereo. Just replace the factory heady unit with a Pioneer AVIC or some other double DIN stereo and you'll be in good shape. The AVIC can also play DVD's. As for putting LCD screens in the headrests you need to ask yourself how often you'll even have people in the back.

Unless some things have changed recently, i think your pretty much wrong about everything. Metra does not make a double din kit. A custom one may be made from the single din metra kit (Streeteffectz by the way makes a great one I have one myself - PM him), but a pre-fabbed double din kit does not exist. Also the the AVICs (double dins) do NOT play dvds. You would have to get a seperate dvd player and hook it up to it.
Not tryin to be an ass, just clearing up what I thought to be some misinformation.

well, pioneer has only made 3 double dins. d1 and now d2; z1. d2 is reportedly no dvd playback so i will assume d1 is not as well. z1 does have dvd playback because the introduction of hard drive for nav has made the media slot available for video playback.
double din dash kit is made by a vendor here called streeteffectz. metra and scosche only made single dins.
the best choice is probably a pioneer (nav built-in, no extra unit) and a flipout (supports dvd playback too, screen positioned higher). pretty inexpensive for the features you get and innovative using a shared slot. currently model is a n3 but n2 may also be available.
