Default Which Double din do you have

I am trying to decide which d/din unit to purchase.
Which unit do you have, please rate it out of 10 for
quality
value for money
after sales service.

If you want please say how much it was.

Your help will be much appreciated on this.
Thanks
Paul

Just in the right mood for this..
---------------------------------
ERISING Units .. from OTTER SHOP on Fleabay cost £220 all in .( inc the returns & repairs)

Had two from here repired both personally from bits they sent . and now its wounded again .
Nearly always the GPS side that goes.

quality... They look good like most do .. pretty fragile electronically.

value for money..... if they worked ... VERY good value

after sales service. OK for a month or so.. but returns have to go to China... after that ..???????.
So its a gamble you might get a good one ??
otherwise ...STAY AWAY ..from OTTER SHOP .
----------------------------------
You get what you pay for really like everything.
RADIOMAN ( Sean) units seem pretty good and have top aftersales.. but you do pay a bit extra for that.

I've got a Kenwood DNX-7200 fitted.

http://www.kenwood-electronics.co.uk...n_one/DNX7200/

Quality - superb
Value for money - second hand great, but these were over £1100 new
After sales service - never needed it with this one, but always had 1st class service from Kenwood repair centres

I've added on the Bluetooth phone module, the Garmin TMC, DAB radio and iPod/iPhone lead. I've a reversing camera to fit and then I'm done. Considered the DVB TV but I'll never use it.

The headunit was under £300 off ebay and with the add-ons, it currently stands me at just over £400.

Well worth the money in my opinion.

I have one of the Radio guy double dins and love it.
Got me all round Germany, Belgium and France last year with no getting lost

My friend (ivorthedj) on here has just brought an Mg Zt-t from another forum member and the first mod he has done is to put one of these units in to his new toy.

Would recommend them to anyone and the aftersales is second to none.
