So after my FM Transmitter randomly just decided to not work properly I went out to buy a new one. Long story short, I was rather displeased with how the new one was working out. So I decided that they are for the birds and made the upgrade to a whole new set up.
Looking around on the internet,reading reviews and looking at prices,with help of tristan as well, I decided on the Alpline CDE-9874.
Its a step or two down from tristans but since he had it, I didnt think I could go wrong. Its really simple to use and after being stressed out about it the whole day and spending a little more than I really wanted to, all of that went out the window as soon as I got in the car and started playing with it. Its been 2 days or so and i already know most of the functions and it isnt a hassel at all.
I got the Ipod adapter cable which goes straight into the back of the head unit and then just plugs into my Ipod. Which is awesome cause it charges your Ipod so you dont have to deal with getting a car charger. I was a little indecisive when it came to either, using the AUX input on the front and being able to control everything FROM the Ipod itself OR getting this adapter cable and ONLY being able to control everything through the head. Obviously i decided on decision # 2 and in all honesty its a lot more efficient and better off. mainly for less cables bring around.
All and all im really pleased with everything. No more dealing with crappy sound, static and changing radio stations in different parts of town.
heres what the factory radio looked like
