not a single aftermarket radio exists that looks correct in a 90s japanese car
>>27835184I just bought this for my 97 Civic. Besides wanting CarPlay I just hate 95% of single DIN offerings out there. Will update when installed
>>27835196kill yourself right now
>>27835196God I love having a phone with a headphone jack
>>27835184nice you should drive your shit box directly into a wall as fast as you can
>>27835196>power acoustiktheir radios are junk. i have one in my chevy and the screen is too bright at night (at the lowest brightness setting) and i have to shut it off.i can't put up with aftermarket radios because i require my instruments to be as dim as possible as night and no aftermarket radio, especially one with a screen, can get as dark as I want them to be.My phone can be dim enough to suit my needs, I don't understand why no one can make a head unit that can as well.>t. autistic. freaks out over lights.
>>27835184>not a single aftermarket radio that looks correct [full stop]Fixed it for ya
>>27835184Most commercial truck HU's have that sort of look. What's even the point of an aftermarket single din deck though? Keep the stock on in there and use it as a clock. Hide a small 2/4 channel amp somewhere and feed it with your choice of input. Hide a small volume knob somewhere if you want.
>>27835184Liv wit oemOem gudBurn CDs, buy 40 year old cassette deck and record cassettes, buy old 8 tracks (or an 8 track adapter) It don't matter anon, use oem
>>27835196I put a Pioneer AVH3500 in my 2006 beetle. The piano black looks like ass though
>>27835196I have to know, what is carplay and why is it such a big deal
>>27835212Lick my ballsack>>27835258It can’t be worse than the OEM radio with lights that flicker and a volume knob that plays opposite day half the time>>27835288>Pioneer AVH3500My $3000 205k mile Honda Civic is not getting a $600 stereo lmaoWorst case Ontario I spent $150 on a radio that’s marginally better than the piece of shit currently occupying the space of the radio
>>27835184You sure about that bud?
>>27835353I consistently use Waze, to get home the fastest (42 miles one way to and from work) and to keep an eye out for speed traps. If I can glance down at the dashboard instead of down at my phone in the passenger seat I would prefer that. Also to play my music without the use of a shitty FM transmitter, and without buying some random LGBT lighted single din
>>27835370based commute rawdogger
on pic rel you can turn the display off with 1 button that's all you need
>>27835360https://www.instructables.com/Hack-an-Auxiliary-Input-to-a-Car-Stereo/I did this to my car in highschool.>a volume knob that plays opposite day half the timeif you volume goes down or randomly increases & decreases when turning the volume up then the potentiometer or rotary encoder has dead spots. cleaning it can temporarily fix the issue, but the only long term fix is to replace the failing part.
>n-no i need to get one that looks period correct!!>drives a base model rusted out bomb with 4 inch speakers >YOU DONT UNDERSTAND I NEED TO PLAY MY HECKIN NIGGER RAP DURING MY 3 HOUR COMMUTE
>>27835184Just get something that isnt extremely gaudy and then stop caring. Its just a radio. It swaps out in 10 minutes.
>>27835645Yes I’m well aware of the aux mods>the only long term fix is to replace the failing partAnd that’s what I’m doing. Replacing the piece of shit stock radio
>>27835184Minidisc player
>>27835366The true period correct radio. My sister had one with F1 cars racing in her corolla

>>27835553walmart chad
>>27836391Aren't these like $500
I absolutely despise how all of the aftermarket stereos that would actually look more at home in an old car are all ridiculously expensivewhat kind of faggot spends $500 on JUST the head unit?
>>27836403like $250, which is still too much
>>27835196>I NEED it to be on spotify>i NEED my joe rogan podcasts>i can't fucking drive without my ADHD rattled brain haivng some kind of stimuli>please i need to justify my shitty apple phone purchase that is gonna be obsolete in a few months
>>27835184i just got a bluetooth fm transmitter, sounds pretty goodset up a routine on my phone to automatically start playing on spotify when i connect to it, dont even have to touch anything
>>27835184And neither do you!
>>27836406Modern Blaupunkt is absolutely garbage, I already know without looking it up they outsourced their manufacturing to either India or Pakistan.
>>27836589a WAT radio?! there she is boys.
>>27836416>WAAAGH! people enjoy things I don’t! WAAAGH! I have to be a contrarian douchebag!Spotify is fucking trash Joe Rogan is a boring faggot, just like you.Kill yourself
>>27835360Hello fellow shitbox driver
You sure about that?
>>27837838
>>27837843It obviously needs to have Bluetooth and show current playing track on the screen to qualify
you could buy a refurbished factory head unit or gamble on one from a pull and save
Random old POS radio for my shit leaktop didnt look that out of place.
>>27835184Honestly what looks out of place in 90s japanese car is stock looking head unit.I like 90s over the top head units but would probably go with modern one for comfiness of bluetooth, hands free, you can even attach hdd to it.
