Can you suggest an in car entertainment screen that pops out? I like the screens you just posted but I like that shyt to pop out on some McGuyver shyt...

This is made by a wack company but it looks dope and I don't see where paying more would add anything:
shopping

Here ya go.

Step up in quality and has bluetooth with a built in mic. Calls only though. It doesnt seem to stream bluetooth from a phone so you still have the radio issue. Thats the only one in your budget that flips out and is not garbage.

Great price at $210

I need advice on what speakers to put in an ford expedition (with mach system but the speakers are blown in the back) that i got a good deal on and am keeping for the next couple years or so.

i currently have a Pioneer DEH-P5100UB deck, an Alpine 600-watt MRP-M650 amp with 2 10" Rockford Fosgate P2D4-10 Punch P2 4-Ohm DVC Subwoofers in a sealed enclosure that i took out of a jeep grand cherokee i got rid of recently. I'm thinking that all i really need are a good set of component speakers for the front and coaxial for the rear, unless the deck doesn't fit in expo in which case i'll cop either a new pioneer or alpine deck since I already had my eyes on a newer deck with more features. i had a pair of Alpine-SPR-17S 6.5" Component speakers in the front of the jeep with some Alpine-Type-R-SPR-17LP 6.5" Coaxials in the back and they sounded nice as fukk, so I was thinking of doing something similar with a comparable brand if I don't stick to Alpine.

what do you suggest? i'm looking to spend $350-400.

Get these. Cant beat the price theye going for now.

dont listen to the statements about round speakers sounding better. You cant tell in a car. These are drop in. However, I actually have a couple sets that msrp around a grand that I would be willing to sell in your price range as well

These are outstanding and go for about 1200

Regarding rears, I dont use them unless its a 5.1 system but any coaxial or your stock is fine.

I say just send more power to front speakers but if you want a good coaxial these two are good, no need to spend more. Let the radio power the rears and an amp power the front.

or any decent brand 5x7 that fits or whatever size with an adapter.

If you dont have an amp for the front speakers you should get one otherwise I wouldnt suggest such high end speakers. If you plan to run the speakers off the radio, Id suggest other components. Let us know

Are there any set ups in the aftermarket realm that would basically let me use an android tablet as the head unit or would that have to be acustom job?

As of right now, Android tablets are a bytch to get right if you care about Sound quality

Ipads on the other hand are a piece of cake.
