    I was sold this unit because the installer didn’t want to do the extra work required to install the larger unit I ordered so I could see controls. In the end of a many many week install process they got right versus left backwards on 2 of my 6 speakers.

    Worked great until after the 30 day exchange was over then died and won’t work. Such a waste of money. Best Buy should be ashamed to carry this.

    There is not enough room in my 2004 bmw z4 for this radio. It does not fit my vehicle. It looks bad and cannot be anchored.

    It's exactly what I wanted as well as needed. The sound is so much better than the previous system I had. The price was very reasonable and installation was included.

    and best buy sucks too! I will never shop there again. This car stereo is the worst I have had. Difficult to search while driving and the display is difficult to see during the day and at night. Best buy did not give me an extension on my receipt so I could not return the unit even though their installers are still out due to covid. TOTALLY SUCKS.
