We can help you pick parts and at least take that burden off and just let them install

So I had the Pioneer 4200NEX installed before I saw Jayhovah's post. But I did mention to be aware that it was all Bose in there. I sure wish I had mentioned that last post about the wiring harness adapter, because I was there ALL day! They obviously figured it out but it took a few tries. They were competent enough to know it didn't sound right. I choose the 4200 because I didn't care about built in navigation. The stereo sounds AMAZING and I love apple carplay. Really happy with my choice.

Jayhovah, let me know how it goes! And tell me which one you get. It's so cool to go from a boring stock stereo to something you love! It's like a new toy and I couldn't be happier. I even turned Suri on for the first time because now using her (actually made it a him) makes sense.

But they did explain something about the way it had to be wired and to be careful with the volume or I could blow my speakers out. The unit doesn't stop the volume at a predetermined max that is appropriate for my speakers. For sure the volume I consider maximum (for me) is not going to blow anything up so it's not a problem.

I went a little lower-end =) Pioneer AVH-X3800BHS... still finishing up the install piece by piece a couple of hours at a time. So far I've installed and run cabling for the backup camera, installed the mic in the factory location, and installed a PAC-CP5 for steering remote control. I am simultaneously running wiring for a sub amp (future upgrade), rerouting some of my laser jammer wiring, and making a custom A-pillar pod for my boost gauge... too many things at once makes for slow progress, but I figure why not while I have everything torn apart.

I'll let you know how it turns out!

I too was going to use this unit till I found out it doesn't support Android Auto so I'm going to get the Pioneer 4200NEX or the Kenwood 9703S which is equivalent to the Pioneer.
