Hey guys,

I'm searching to upgrade my head unit in my evo 9 ssl
i just bought the adapter and harness for it but now the main thing. i need help with the head unit

it needs to have a usb port - must have
having bluetooth would be great but not important.
it has to be red led/lights - must have

i've been searching at the new new products from jvc, kenwood, pioneer and alphine. so far i really like this one but the txt is white so i'm wondering if the lightening might be wierd.

A little off subject, but is that a custom mount for the AEM truboost in the ashtray? Hows the visibility on that?

You have the same desire as me. I went thru a few headunit already, you may want to check them out.

Pioneer DEH-P6200BT

Front USB, AUX, Bluetooth, Support mp3 and all the other good shit

Pioneer AVH-P5000

I added the bluetooth and iPod modules, this thing costed me alot, but worth it, lol. It have a USB plug also, which you can run the wire where ever.

jvc makes a headunit that you can change colors of the letters and lighting.

Yeah, in my last Evo I had a JVC that has the USB port and an aux input (to control ipod) on the front, plus it let you change the colors. There were around 25 color choices and I was able to match the stock cluster, my blue Apexi gauges, as well as the stock A/C backing colors. It was HD-ready, Bluetooth, Sirius, all that too. < $150.

I've always liked the sound quality of Alpines but not the usability.

JVC: http://www.crutchfield.com/app/product/search/searchresults.aspx?search=jvc+headunit&ssi=0&nvpair=FFBrand%7cJVC+Mobile&nvpair=FFCategory%7c%5brank266150%5dCar+Stereos+%2 6+Components

Check the features. They're all mostly the same but some have Bluetooth or iPod control built-in, some don't. But almost all have the color changing which is awesome.

not looking to spend more than 300?

evom diy double din kit and get a refurbed f90bt, total was approx $650
bluetooth, including bluetooth dialing with contact list, basically only option on this headunit is hd radio, sat radio, and backup camera.

I would recommend Pioneer or Alpine, both are Great Products.

its almost completely reversible, only thing is that behind the dash theres a metal bracket you have to cut a hole for the cable, besides that, the hvac control unit itself is intact, only mod is to the hvac surround panel. the radio relocation kit, and the hvac decals, which can all be replaced.
