Some nice ones on Crutchfield.com that I am looking at for the wife's car. Not all that expensive either!

I have the Pioneer AVIC N-4, itself its a good system, I like the navigation and the styling.

But if you want an indash screen, I no longer would suggest a single din screen, the flap motor WILL break and you will either be stuck with it open all the time or closed. Luckily mine is open. This is the only downside to single din IMO.

If you do some searching you will find that many have just bought double din screens and cut the dash to fit it. Its really not hard if you have some fiberglass skills and the benefits will become evident down the road...

As a lifelong Pioneer fan my last purchase was a Kenwood DNX6960. The Garmin GPS is the best Ive used so far and have been nothing but please with it.

My previous unit was a Pioneer D3 and I did like it, but I find the Kenwood has a lot better features.

The quick iPod control alone was worth the switch.

I have a Clarion that I love. I know your dash is different than mine, but I bought the dash piece from the dealer for a truck with factory navigation and the head unit fit perfectly with no trimming. I don't know if navigation was an option in 03-05 trucks though.

The Kenwood units are very nice. Garmin GPS built in and fantastic wide clear reverse camera.
