I put a Kenwood KDC-X791 in my 350Z and it works great. I don't have a cd changer or iPod but I can use any USB data device as a sound source.

Kenwood is using USB drives as cd changer replacements. I purchased a 4gp usb drive from Circuit City and loaded it with music. It never has to leave the car and never needs to be recharged.

good luck
hey let me know how u make out with the Kenwood DNX7100. i was considering this unit for my w209.

alpine w205

does this have a cassette player? I know most people hardly use it but it's a stock feature that some aftermarket doesn't carry.

Need Help Installing aftermarket Head Unit

Does anyone know where I can get a dash kit to fit a 2001 ML55. I've look all over online and cannot find one. Shops tell me they do not make one, however I have seen pictures of the ML55 with double-din receivers in the place of the factory unit with a dash kit around it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!
