Ok, I bid on this for a gift, but then my brother decided he wanted a Bazooka instead. So, I bought the bazooka for $99 and now I'm stuck with this HU. It looks ok, should I put it in the 'vic? I still have the stock CD player.

It was going to be a gift for my brother, and it would've been quite an improvement over his crappy Hyundai stock radio. But I'm stuck with it now. Maybe I'll try selling it, I kinda like my setup with my stock cd player and all.

That's if you guys don't approve of the brand. I don't know jack about ICE to tell the truth.

Hi Crappy stock Hyundai radio is better than our Honda one's [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG].. Hyundai 's OEM radios are Clarion 215's with a different face cover..[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
