    Another recall

    I am amazed they havent recalled the upper panhard bar or watts link as well, mine looks like it will be failing soon, and the undercarriage has zero rust.. clearly made out of inferior steel and lousy paint seal on it.

    Is there a way to access the backup 12 volt trigger wire from the center console or in the dash?

    Wire Run for Backup Cam

    Go with alpine. Customer support is great, and out of all the double din units.. alpines consistently have the best audio section. Imho. But then again I am into having my car sound like a band is on the hood playing... just me.
