Calling Howard, calling Howard...
You're still in the doghouse for abandoning us ST220 owners, but since I have need of your experience, I'll forgive you
.
Doing a bit more research at the moment with a view to possibly pulling the trigger on some audio goodness before Christmas, and was wondering what made you go for the 178BT in particular?
If I look at the single DIN Alpine range, there's the 183BT and 173BT too, both of which look extremely capable, just without the fancy display. Any reason you didn't go for those and save a few quid?
Also, I know you didn't want to go double DIN because you'd just want a Sat Nav then, but there seems to be a couple of decent offerings from Pioneer (FH-X700BT) and Alpine (CDE-W235BT) in double DIN that look the part on a spec sheet, and would save needing a fascia adaptor.
Any guidance welcome, I'm weeks away from doing this at best, I tend to research these things into the ground
.
Cheers.
