I've been reading up quite a bit on here, as well on other sites. The amount of information is a little overwhelming, mixed, and a lot of threads are simply out dated.
One thing I've read are these screens for the HVAC controls crapping out over time. I'm guess I'd like some updated feedback from guys using these kits so I can be sure I'm making a good decision.
My car is a base 2012 GT, no sync, just base 4 speaker stereo. In my last car (2006 w/ Base 4 spkr stereo) I upgraded the headunit and front 2 speakers, and added a sub/amp and really liked the way it sounded. For a minimalist stereo, it packed a nice punch while providing great clarity, lightyears away from the Shaker 500 (IMO)
So now I'm definitely missing my old sound quality, and want it back rather quickly. Here's my two options I'm considering.
1) Keep OEM headunit, upgrade 4 speakers, possibly amplify them, and install my sub/amp with a LOC
2) Buy one of the below kits, install my kenwood double din, upgrade speakers, install sub/amp.
Through research, these are the two kits I came across that people are using:

I'm an audio person, however I'm not looking to go all out with my stereo. I do cruise a lot and use my stang' for roadtrips and vacations, so having a nice stereo is a must. I'm not looking to spend more than the two above kits, which is why I'm checking to see how they hold up. IN all honesty, I'd prefer to pay less. However by the time I spend the coin on a decent Line Out converter and amps to use with the OEM headunit, I feel I can just get one of these kits and use my Kenwood and get the sound I want.
Any opinions are welcome, thanks for the help in advance.
