just had an alpine 7874 installed in the 2002 EX coupe and the display is barely visible, totally washed out in daytime. not much better at night. is this a standard alpine problem? is there a way to brighten the display? if I'm rehashing an old topic.., well I'm new. thanks

nope, i have the alpine 7875 and its not clear at all. its b/c the dash is at a slant. i will on the other hand relocate the cd player to the cigarette lighter piece, so the display should be better down there.

i just put in my new Alpine CDA-7995 and i can see it fine. and if your having problems at night u have real issues. If you hit the Setup buttom you can scroll through and there is a Contrast setting you can change. or at least mine does... mine would work great down below cause it has a motorized face that you can tilt back up and u can even control it from the remote. But i plan on putting the screen down there so its gonna have to stay where it is. I can't afford to have the screen up high in case i'm driving at night cause u could see right in to it and then all i would see is blue lights behind me every night....
