Right there. It really works wonders. It hides behind the deck so you can't see it at all. Except I didnt pay retail for it ($140) I got it for around $50-55 on ebay. Some of them pop up here and there for cheap..

yeah i found it. everywhere selling them for 115..0 or less. pretty neat little setup. i found a seller on ebay with the pdx-4.100 for 289.00 shipped. i think i will go that route unless i find one like you did for 50.00. i just ordered my type-r componets 128.80 shipped. i feel like a kid in a candy store

Size:  83.8 KB i have it in my camaro its pretty cool!. I have a question tho. Does your next button to skip thru songs stick? like i have to push mine several times to go 2 a new song sometimes. some other guy had the same problem too and he said its because the Prev/next are on the same button? IDK ? Do you have this problem? Im thinknig about contacting alpine.. congrats on new system! Alpine all the way!

yeah my freezes from time to time. i figured the would tell me it was my ipod since it is an older classic. it may be that you need the full speed cable.

Let me know how those type r componets sound.. I'm thinking about just getting type r's since I have type r subs.

Did you have any problems hooking up the SWI-JACK, or just follow the directions and it works wonders?
