Got a new head unit *pics*

My Preimer HU had a faulty preout, so instead of getting it fixed I decided to get the Alpine 9855. I then found out that it works with the Ipod interface adapter so I spent another $100 to get it (my money managing skills are excellent )







The glidetouch strip takes getting used to, I would rather have buttons, but I like it nonetheless. The ipod adapter is mounted under the passenger seat and the Ipod sits in the glove box

The 9835 and 9855 are the same model, minus the buttons on the 9855.. I went to great lengths to get the buttons

Actually. the Alpine offers 512 different color shades. There's probably about 8-12 different orange/ambers that could work. On my 9835, I set it at color #48.

here's a pic of mine at night
