Haha, no it's my husband's dressing gown �� the car is a right hand drive. We were both ready for bed when someone on another site asked for a picture of the flip up stereo but we went out and took it anyway !!!

I like the Looks better on this one ..its black.
the 1.5 volt output from rca is not enough to drive our stock amp but the speaker level out should work .

Look at the sellers negative feedback regarding the quality of the Xtron units. I would tread carefully!

If you value sound quality then don't get a cheap Chinese head unit. Any Pioneer/Kenwood/Clarion would destroy it from what i've seen.

I tried an older unit in my Audi Cab. Half the functions did not work and it crashed randomly. Paid the money and wend for a double din Kenwood 9250Dab. Not problems and full local dealer support.

If you can get a good seller for an Xtron and he would take it back if any issues then maybe i can see the appeal.

Personally i am going to pay the extra for my Crossfire and go Pioneer or similar.

Its Pioneer AVH-X7700BT it doesn't have DAB, I've had it about 2 years now and they didnt do it with DAB then. There may be a newer model now though.

Talking Re: Single DIN flip radio

I'm very happy with the choice I FINALLY made... It needed an upgraded harness after the fact for volume. The one I bought was not cutting it.
Bluetooth for hands free calling, streaming music, and hearing my Google Maps navigator.
SD card reader.
CD/DVD.
Hangs BELOW the DIN, so as to leave access to the "important" (comfort) controls.
Removable - for when the top is down and I'm feeling paranoid.

Looks like they've upgraded their appearance.

I have just ordered one of these for my 07 crossfire, did you need an adapter to get it working or was it straight up plug in?

I had it done at a shop as it didn't have sat nav but you can buy the sat nav unit that goes with it separate so they fitted the whole lot.

I started this thread and then I decided to go for a double DIN head unit with navigation and rear view camera features. The modified face plates still needs a coat of paint. I am thinking of a different layout which entails fitting the buttons directly below the unit and losing the ash tray/ lighter module entirely. The console face plate would return to the OEM one.

I have the same flip-out pioneer head unit and I bought the metra harness. My headunit powers up. I have the infiniti system in my limited. Sound comes out but I barely hear anything unless it's on full blast. Really thin sound with no bass if I turn it up at high volume. I don't know why it's not working properly. Help

I used the RCA pre amp plugs.
this is the link to my harness.
