I am putting my old system in my '07 Altima (Power Acoustik OV2-420 or OV2420, Rockford Fosgate Punch HE 12" subwoofer in a RIT Mobil Sound System carpeted box). Should I get a new head unit? Any other recommendations or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

Yes, new head unit would provide way more adjustment. Ask Murph where he got his.

will I lose the ability to control the stereo through the steering wheel?

**mikejamesbyma** · 06-04-2010

I believe you will lose that control.

You will lose steering wheel control but amazon has the wire harness to make it work for like...$40 I think just search for it. I would but Im on my phone now not a comp. I got my HI from bestbuy it was an open box return double din touch screen for $250 retail was $450. Good luck!

@Murph How much should I expect to pay, to have my speaker/amp/the wire harness installed?...ballpark type #'s

N are altima's difficult to work with?

I put my new HU in in about 20 minutes. Very easy to work with. If you can change your own oil you can install a new HU into your car. Just like anything if you take your time you can get it done. Let me/us know if you need any help.

thay make a line output that you wire into the oem speaker wires if you dont want to go throw the trubal of the new head, it will have gane adj. on it and is simple to install
