Well, since everything I have read about the bose system and its pain in the *** to replace, what head unit do you recommend that is more plug and play with better sound quality?

Im not very audio savvy so if its still possible to use this head unit without a huge headache to make sure its installed correctly, is there any directions I can give the installer that will make everything run smooth?

LOL ya bose is a PITA to replace. You can choose any head unit as long as the pre output voltage is 4 volts or higher, anything lower you will not get a lot of volume and a lot of noise out of the speakers.

Alright, so, "pre output voltage is 4 volts installer guy!" and i'm good. Just curious, what do you think the sound quality would be like vs the old non nav bose headunit? I also read you were making a trip to socal this november maybe I could jump on that band wagon.

Your more than welcome to jump in on the trip. You will have some sound improvement over the factory radio.
