As above, wanting to replace the head unit with one of the above and wondered if any of you guys have fitted either of them?

carl..

 

Got the DDX 6027 - what you want to know ?

 

is it easy to fit, with the extra kenwood/subaru conecter? and what is the pic quality like with the touch screen?

thnx

carl..

 

I should hope that they're all easy to fit as it's a standard DIN mounting. The electrical connections are taken care of with an ISO converter which used to be a PC2-44-4 or something like that... Under 15 quid from any ICE retailer.

Try them both before you buy would seriously be my advice. Ergonomics are so important in car that you need to know you can use the features something has before shelling out.

 

Love my kenwood

Screen is great

Kids love the remote control in the back

 

Dead easy to fit as said above. Picture quality is good I would say although it was perhaps an area where I was a bit disappointed as thought it would be a bit more vibrant and bright than it is..
The touch screen works well but I think they missed a real opportunity with it in terms of presentation, you get a few very crappy backgrounds and it just doesn't look very sexeh for the money it costs.
Wouldn't have taken a lot I would have thought to offer a few themes or spent a bit longer on the UI design.

In process of getting the sat nav / TMC addon for mine and a roof mounted screen for the kids..

 

Would be interested in knowing what this costs if you don't mind
