Good DD Video Headunit w/o Nav?
Can anybody point me in the right direction to finding a good DD video headunit without navigation? Most of the nicer ones I have seen have navigation built in. I'm pretty happy with my TomTom and wouldn't mind saving a few buck not buying a feature I don't need and won't use.

I'd recommend either the Alpine IVA-W505, or if you want to spend a little less, the IVA-W205 (they're on sale at Best Buy and a few other places right now). iPod integration rocks, and the interface is super fast. IMHO they are the best DD units on the market. Nav is optional with either unit.

Here's a few others as well:
If you want to retain a clean stock look then I'd consider any of these:

http://www.kenwoodusa.com/Car_Entert...e_Video/DDX712
http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...s/AVH-P6000DVD
These are not as clean looking IMO when installed but are much cheaper and still great Head Units:

Personally, I went with the Kenwood excelon 812 for the advanced sound processing capabilities. If you're a 'tweaker' this may be for you. Check out the user manual here: http://inform3.kenwoodusa.com/manuals%5Cdnx8120.pdf
Note pages 64-68 and 92-97 for audio processing capabilities. Got if for $730 including shipping off eBay.

Thanks for all the replys. Definitely gave me something to think about for the next few months. I just dropped some money on Pop Charger, Z Tube, MD 5/16" Copper Spacer and MREV2, so I won't be looking to upgrade the stereo until Jan at the earliest. At least now I'm pointed in a good direction.
