Greetings all,

As subject says. I installed part of my new stereo system yesterday. Still have a bit more work but am very happy with progress so far. Images below:

Head unit fit like a glove.

As you can see getting the rear 6x9's in wasn't easy. Going to leave the back seat out until I get rest of system in.

After having the head unit in for two day I've already decided to rip it out and send back. The unit sounds fantastic but the Ipod interface leaves much to be desired. So much so it is unacceptable.

Going to replace with this Pioneer Unit

Sure does look pretty though. Thats too bad...

yes kenwood have a really poor ipod interface, so un-useable ... pioneer on the other hand, which i have found is bloody easy to use :) basically the same on the HU as on the ipod :)
