Great Buy For The Price by Nelson on sonicelectronix.com Mar 16, 2012
The head unit was a breeze to install with the install kit, the only downside i can mention is that there is not true equalizer for this kit. Still for the price it looks sharp and has a great number of features.

I brought the Boss BV8970 In-Dash 8" DVD/MP3/CD Receiver with USB, SD Card, and Front Panel AUX Input last year and one year to the day of purchase, the dvd player stopped working. I called the warranty number and after reading the 3 year warranty card ...
 
Boss bv8970 by Anthony on amazon.com Oct 3, 2011

Quality could be better by David S. Mcnally "Dave" on amazon.com Jan 2, 2012
