Don't go by what it says on the website. call them. I called them 2 weeks ago and they said they were getting another shipment in by the 27th (TODAY!) and they were selling a few at a time over the phone. When I called the guy, he said they just sold one of the few extras they had left.

call them up and tell them you want to order one. I was lucky that a couple of weeks ago there was an audio install place selling a few of the scosche kits brand new on ebay. I am all ready to do the install tomorrow.

so call them up!

also, there are a bunch of good pioneer navs with the 6" screen that are reasonably priced and full of features.

Like Bones said, call them, they have them in stock but not at there main warehouse. I received my last week and should be getting my Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT today. Going to get it installed on tomorrow, will post pictures ASAP =)

I thought I read somewhere that some of the Bezels have been reported to Drain the battery and Scosche does not have a fix ...

I haven't heard that. Please post link if you find it. I know it's the same base unit they use for the camaros and taurus

Don't cheap out dude, your going to regret it. Might as well go big or go home Just playing but you don't want to spend the money and money on getting it installed now then have to do it all over again when you realize you should have done it right the first time.

I have a Pioneer AVIC-X930BT that I just got installed a couple of days ago. It is a great unit! It has so many features and you can put Sirius satellite radio on it. Look it up on YouTube. And like Wil said, go big or go home. Its not going to be cheap.

the Avics are great radios.I got a great deal on a used AVIC-Z120BT and for $45 I got the software upgrade with 2011 maps and it will also upgrade it to a Z130BT. Reviews for Alpines are inconsistent. Avics are solid units. I have a Z3 I have had for 6 years in my truck and it's still working great.

this is something you want to research and plan really well ahead of time. I am doing the install myself so that's saving some $$, but I chose all the harnesses and interfaces myself based on the research.
