Haha, once I get the car running right I may consider it. Can I still use the same hideaway brain or do I have to switch that out too?

AVIC f series? I have the Z1, how much of a difference?

smaller screen. 6" i believe, but you gain a flash based memory system over a hard drive based, USB support, SD Card reader built in, Bluetooth Built in. Check out the F90BT. its the premiere version of the F900BT and has better audio stuff

But is the hide away brain the same?

 

[94tbird]

no brain to hide away. everything is internal.

 

[ZmanM3]

That is a big improvement.

Hmm, wasn't aware it was removable; the literature that comes with the unit doesn't make that very plain...
