Kenwood DDX712
$800.00
Released February, 2008
The Pros:Video is very clear and detailed, screen is sharp and vibrant. Installation instructions are easy to understand, fairly complete. Looks clean and simple, sits flush with the dash for a "stock" look.
The Cons:Need to read the owner's manual to work out the controls, not very intuitive. Some glitches reading from a connected iPod, sometimes needs to be reconnected. Installation is a little too involved for first-timers.
