Nitrousbird Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Christmas is coming up, and one of my ideas is finally getting her a navigation unit for her Audi. I really don't want to do a portable unit; just wouldn't look right in her car. Factory Audi RNS-E is expensive, period. You might, and that's a MIGHT, luck into a used one w/ none of the wiring extras for $700. And honestly, I've seen several new aftermarket ones that are far nicer for the price. I want to go a lot cheaper than that. E-bay type prices, new/used/refurb (though must be in great condition). Keeping the rest of her stereo system stock. Must be Sirius ready (I would sell her current factory Sirius tuner box and use that money to buy one for whatever head unit I would purchase...the Audi ones are PRICEY, so I'll get a pretty penny, since I paid a pretty penny for hers last year for Christmas). I'd like to keep it under $400. Beyond that, I'll probably go with a different Christmas gift. Any ideas? I will not put some junk unit in her car either.

KillJoy Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Call John @ (269) 637-1994. Speak to no one but him. Tell him KillJoy suggested you call him. I don't know what he has in that price range, but I am sure he will get you taken care of... :thumbup: KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRN96WS6 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 $400 are you serious Joe? That won't get a decent non navi head unit! I think you need to up your price....and relatively speaking I don't think that $700 is a lot of money for a factory unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrousbird Posted October 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 $400 are you serious Joe? That won't get a decent non navi head unit! http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Support/CarAudioVideo/In-Dash/CD-Players/ci.DEH-P9800BT.Support That's what is in my Avlanche; bought it about a month after it was released. Was the best Premier non-navigation head unit at the time...I paid about $350 shipped for it, brand new. It was their top end deck until this year when they released a new model line. You can get good deals if you look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
