I own a 2008 1500 Dodge Ram, and consider very important to keep the original equipment look. Since my pickup had a OEM stereo, to make it fit my dash I had to buy a factory NAV bezel from Dodge (the bezel for the pickup with navigation system). With the customizable illumination of the Pioneer receiver, it looks amazing and fits perfectly with the illumination of my whole dash.
The menus are very easy to use and the picture looks incredibly sharp. Even though that the screen is a little bit smaller than the AVH-4100DVD, the screen is fixed and I am sure it is better that way, since I don't exactly trust the other model's opening and closing mechanism. The animated backgrounds look very nice and the interface for the USB memory displays all the information of any song that is playing.
If you are considering buying a double DIN DVD, this is the best option on the market today.
Note: Some of the touch screen functions are blocked while driving unless you bypass the parking brake wire. For this bypass without a switch, I used a 5 pin relay (Mobile Spec MSRELAY Relay 30amp 5pin Sgl-Pull Dbl-Throw) and wired it as follows: prong 87 and 86 to ground wire, prong 85 to the remote wire coming off the head unit (blue wire) and then the parking brake wire (green) goes to prong 30. This connection will allow you to have the full touch sceen functions at all time and watch DVDs without the parking brake engaged.Get more detail about Pioneer Avh-P3100Dvd 5.8-Inch In-Dash Touchscreen Double-Din Dvd Multimedia A/V Receiver.
