Want to know if your vehicle can fit most Double DIN video or CD players using a kit? The Scosche chart will show you which kit you will receive FREE with purchase of a compatible in-dash unit. Not all vehicles require a kit, and may only use the factory mounting brackets to replace the factory Double DIN unit. Please note that factory mounting depth needs to be factored into the installation of any unit, along with the outer mounting area of the Double DIN dash opening compared to the units.

Car Stereo Information:

To use an analogy, a car stereo (also called a head-unit or a receiver) is the "brain" of the car audio operation, allowing the user to control the sound output and adjust it as they see fit. After market stereos provide superior options and more features than factory head units. They also have a much flashier design including animated displays and customized color schemes. The sound is louder and cleaner from after-market head units, and most have enhanced security features such as detachable face plates and stealth modes designed to prevent your head unit from being stolen.

The stereos usually come standard with controls for your AM/FM tuner and also have CD, MP3, WMA, and AAC playback capability. They also include standard controls for volume, balance, tone, fader, and source selection. Unlike factory radios, after-market head units have special skip protection, built-in crossovers and equalizers, and even Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound decoding. The top of line car receivers include features such as DVD playback, satellite radio controls, digital HD Radio, internal hard drives, Bluetooth capability, GPS navigation, and inputs for iPod and USB use.

We carry car stereos with in-dash DVD playback with screens sold separately. Check out our LCD Monitors for Overhead, headrest, stand alone, rearview, sun visor, and in dash monitors. We also offer in-dash DVD receivers with built-in screens that offer touchscreen controls. They feature motorized screens so that you can put the screen away when out of use. You can use these to view backup cameras and your plug-and-play GPS Navigation units (sold separately).

Our in-dash GPS Navigation systems are installed right into your vehicle's dash location. They include a built-in CD player, AM/FM tuner and some even offer video (DVD) playback too. They also feature A/V inputs and outputs and an antenna for picking up the GPS signal. Your navigation system uses this antenna to pick up signals from Global Positioning Satellites. The monitors feature touchscreen controls which make it easy to type in your destinations by simply pressing on the digital keyboard display. Most systems include points of interest preloaded on your system’s memory. These points of interest are especially helpful when traveling in uncharted territory, giving you directions to gas stations, airports, restaurants, hotels, and other useful locations. Some GPS receivers are now fashioned with Bluetooth technology, which not only allows you to make and receive hands-free phone calls but also facilitates touchless navigation through the use of voice-commands.

Many of our car stereos offer connectivity with iPods, USBs, and SD Cards for MP3 playback. This means you can play the music on your portable media player through your car receiver, controlling it all through your car radio. Just simply plug your portable music player into the stereo. Some stereos require plug adapters to do this, and in a limited number of older models you can only control the music through the portable player. You can also install a FM modulator so you can listen to your portable media players via a radio frequency. Car stereos that are geared with the latest Bluetooth technology enable you to play music wirelessly from your laptop, cell phone or other digital media players. Certain stereos even offer a built-in hard drive for storing your entire music library.

Don’t overlook the cutting edge technology of HD radio and Satellite radio. HD radio allows you to receive a clearer AM/FM signal, even when traveling in the most obscure locations. Similarly, satellite radio offers clear broadcasting signals almost anywhere, but it also offers commercial-free channels with premium content. To use a satellite radio tuner, you need a satellite radio-ready car stereo, an antenna, and a subscription. Simply mount the unit underneath your seat and connect the stereo to the antenna to begin your satellite radio experience. Satellite radio units that operate with navigation compatible stereos offer live traffic data for an additional monthly fee. This data briefs you on the average speed of traffic in your selected areas and helps you avoid traffic jams.

Most stereos include options for further expansion possibilities. You can use the stereo’s auxiliary inputs and audio/video outputs to connect portable media players, TV monitors, amplifiers, and subwoofers.
