a lot of the cars at my work have aftermarket touchscreens... only good thing about them is they look really cool. they take a while to get used to and could be a hugeeeee distraction to whats happening on the road. Plus they are flippin expensive!!! Were talking $800+!! insane! to me it isnt worth it, id rather have a good aftermarket unit that has good sound so i can listen to the music rather than 'look' at it. plus they dont distract you and make you drive like a woman

He wants to put in a new stereo receiver not mount a iPod or mobile phone. What he wants to do is going to be alot of modifications to he's center dash unit.
