Anyone have any recommendations as to a good MP3 head unit? I'm particularly looking for one with a readable display in bright sunlight.

SPECIAL ALERT TO CIVIC OWNERS:

I have a 97 Civic coupe, and with the tilted mounting location, I can't read my Clarion's display except at night unless I cup my hand over the display (very annoying.)

Thanks in advance!

 

i have the kenwood mp919, and absolutely love it..
its bright all of the time except when the sun is shining directly on it. it also has a tilt feature so you can tilt it up, which sometimes helps when the sun is directly on it.

 

Alpine CDA-7894...
That Kenwood is also a very nice unit, a little too complicated to use for me though, but I guess i'd get used to it if I had it.

If the sunlight is a real pain, get the kit to mount the stock cassette deck down in front of the shifter, and mount the deck down there.

 

yeah it was complicated at first, with all the eq settings and customizable displays and whatnot, but now ive finally got it the way i want it....just takes a little getting to know it.

 

I got the Pioneer 7400 mp, its pretty good, but the radio reception sucks, maybe its because i dont have an external antenna, my stock radio was better, but other than that it is pretty good.
