Double din vs. Flip-Up

[Tom Joad]

I see you have a '03 LT with the Bose system.
What did you need beside the receiver to make it fully fonctionnal?

i see alot of you guys have the Pioneer AVH P4200. what the difference in it and the P4300? is the P4300 newer? and if i get a DD will i still need a install kit?

yes you'll need a kit.

What kind of kit are you talking about?

the shifter might block a flip out.. so its best to use a dd..

This is a question I had back in a few years ago when i was shopping for a new hu. dd or flip out? well i went with the flip out screen because of numerous reasons. I wanted security detachable face that way my hu wont be in display for thieves. I wanted the detachable piece to be small and easy to carry. I wanted the full 7" lcd display. But reason i got the flip out was because i liked the way it stands out and is more easy to control. The only cons i see is that you have to flip the screen out when you are in gear other than that everything is good. I went with clarion and im really glad i did. Im also a big fan of pioneer. Hope that helps.

go with DD I used to have a flip out n it would get stuck on the shifter like you said. I got mad one day n grabbed it n just bent the shifter up enough that it cleared it. but would deff go with DD they last longer my flip out broke from pushing the screen(flimsy linkage) so I upgraded
