Re: Stereo Equipment

Heres the one I bought from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170473887331&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Its a Sony CDX-H905IP. $159.00 Shipped and it came with a wired remote that I mounted in the front of my bow so I can change stations, tracks or volume when I'm sitting up front.
It also came with a wireless remote that I dont even use.
It is waterproof and it controls an ipod with an attached 9 foot ipod cable. Thats how I use it, with the ipod sitting in the glove box. So far I am impressed with it, though the ipod navigation isnt as easy as the alpine in my car. But for the boat, its just fine. I usually set it to 'random' and let it go.

If you dont want or have use for the wired remote you can find the radio alone for about $20 cheaper on ebay.

I have the same head unit and wired remote although I installed mine at the back by the ladder. I believe this was Sony's best marine unit in 2008 and I'm very happy with mine.

Re: Stereo Equipment

how much larger than 1-DIN is that head unit? Mine's tucked away in the glove box, that's probably space for it but just want to confirm. That's a sharp price on ebay.

Edit: does it work with Iphone and or charge ipod?
