Hi,
Been surfing round the web a bit looking for a decent double din, quite a lot of models and websites out there, so anybody got any recommendations. Requirements:
- iPod Control
- Touchscreen
Also thinking of four speakers to replace the standard ones.
Any ideas on a model for the stereo/speakers and maybe a recommendation for an online retailer would be appreciated.

cheers guys... think the jvc only had usb, not ipod, the alpine looks like it might be the one though..

:yeahthat: i own this and can highly recomend it, all your ipod controls are done on the touchscreen which looks like something Apple could have designed. i doubt you'll find a better one for the money. :) (it also works with the iphone)

oh, i went for the W202R already - it's pretty, cool iPod control on touchscreen, just annoyed only music and not video's play from Ipod, other than that it's great.
I have the Alpine but I would take a look at the kenwood DNX 7200 (http://www.audio66.com/product.asp?id=5593&mod=Kenwood-DNX7200&cat=0&man=3&main=5&userid=885568798395004077662037&firstsel=&variation=)
It does video ipod, album covers, DVD, has built in garmin satnav and much more.
I would change to this one myself but I have the alpine 5.1 processor so cant change the screen if I want to keep that.
any of the pioneer avic ones, not cheap tho!!
