Default About to go pick up a PIONEER IN DASH DVD!!

Wooo hoooooo!!
4 1/2 more hrs of work and then I will probably buy a new Pioneer 5700 in dash unit. Its pretty cheap MSRP 1100, seen it online for 750ish and my shop wants 1000 for it, but there is no way I am paying that. The reason its cheap is because it doesn't have nav with it, but I can't wait to make custom DVDs with music and let's just say... innappropriate background videos.

Do some more research before you pull the trigger. I think the 5700 probably doesnt do everything you are looking for....

Actually, incorrect. The newest generation of pioneers have a built in gyroscope. It will not allow you to watch video while moving...no matter what hack you have planned (if you are referring to grounding the ebrake cable).

Like I said. Do some research before buying....

BOUGHT THAT ****!!!

OK, so I put down 1120 for it with a 3 hr install and what not... which is pricey as hell. But what got me is their warranty that you can't get online. I decided since its so expensive, better to lay down an xtra hundred for it, rather than deal with shipping it out if it gets broken, and knowing me, it will.

I will have pics in about 10 days as the install is thursday, and my camera is MIA...
