I need a new stereo head unit. (ADVICE?)

I'm just looking for a good quality replacement, one that isn't too expensive..

I plan on using the stock speakers, as they all work just fine.. What suggestions do you guys have on which unit I should get? Thanks alot!

If you are keeping the stock speakers then you may as well keep a stock deck...

Well thats just the thing, I PLANNED TOO. However, it stopped working completely. I don't have the funds for new speakers right now.. But I do need music. Haha.

If you plan on putting aftermarket speakers in, i would look on ebay for either a Kenwood or Pioneer (my prefered brands) head unit, there are some good units on there that arent too pricey, just my

I run all Alpine stuff in my car, sounds great. When you're putting your new stereo in, if you get an aftermarket one, I've found some sweet trim rings before that say Camaro on them, but I can't find them now, I just did a few google searches. I'll see if I can't find the link and post it here.

I think you guys are reffering to the flush mounts?

Anyway, any ideas on which aftermarket unit would work well with my stock speakers?
