11535, Need Help Choosing Navigation System
Posted by EclipseTenzoR, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I need help choosing between an Eclipse Navigation system and the New Pioneer Navigation. I like the looks of the Eclipse navi and how it would look in the dash, but Pioneer has a new indash which is pretty damn nice too including xm navitraffic which plans alternative routes if traffic is jammed in the primary route. The upside is the Pioneer is about $500 cheaper than the Eclipse. So heres the deal, pretend money is of no object which one would you guys go with?

I know some Eclipse units come with a free replacement if they are stolen. Of course they have to be installed by a dealer but that is still a nice deal if you are dropping that kind of money on something.

My friend is going on his third replacement Eclipse HU. It's a 8443 model. I have never had any problems with my Pioneer and I like my display a lot more.

Wow, I just went to Tweeter today to check out the Pioneer unit and let me tell you that the headunit is amazing! I can't wait to receive mine soon. I will take lots of pics of how it looks in the dash. Simply its an amazing unit but I would have to mess with the Eclipse to get a better comparison. I can atleast say I will not be disapointed with the AVIC-D1 unit

I bought the Pioneer one if no one noticed my sig. I will take some pictures of the whole car and make a gallery soon, because a few people bugged me about the sig being a tease..So I will have more pictures in time.
