    Does anyone on here happen to know a bit about installing aftermarket stereos in vehicles? I was wanting to get one to upgrade my 2010 stereo since its fairly outdated and I thought a nice touchscreen with some knob control would be nice, but I have a couple issues about it.

    1) Everything I find when I try to look up my different options they all look like cheap imitations that you would find for a few bucks on Teemu. They also tend to have a lot of mixed to bad reviews about only working for a short period of time before failing as well as being very slow to process your inputs.

    2) I have a 2010 Prius that's equipped with steering wheel functionality, a factory back up camera, and a factory JBL system which, from my understanding, all make it that much more complicated to truly acquire an upgrade due to the increased levels of complexity when trying to recover the functionality of everything I have. Sure, there's options to rewire a whole new camera but isn't no one want to do work they don't have to do.

    Basically, what I'm getting at is there any good brands out there to look at for future reference if I do try and upgrade in the future or should I just honestly stick with my original parts and keep using Google maps on my phone? [​IMG]
