for the same price as this one or less than this one?
http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/beat-usbsd-p-5588.html
Opinions on whether this is any good? Any better ones for same price or less?
I really like this one, not because it plays DVD's or anything fancy like that, simply because of the style of it. Im useless when it comes to ICE and all that  so any help is appreciated.
HAS TO BE DARK/BLACK  so it goes with interior.
Might be able to get hold of some fusion 6x9's to put in a stealth shelf

Mate I've installed a few of these now.... they are really good radios for the price and do the job very well.
For lighter grey interiors ive been fitting the RipSpeed ones:

If you want top end stuff.... go for the Jet black JVC kit.

What is the DVD screen like on it, i suspect its a bit random watching a tiny screen 
Also it was the name of it that i wasnt too sure about, never heard of them

thats the thing, my mate had one of them in his car, till some chavvy scum broke in and stole his screen, parcel shelf inc 6x9's, sub and gear knob
I dont really want a fancy screen cause im not that fussed. I listen to music but it isnt something i take loads of thought over -
Plan is, possibly get this head unit, unless theres something better for less
Get my brothers 6x9's that he said i could have, and put them in a stealth shelf. That is all. Cba to have the 6x9's on show because i dont really like it, hence getting stealth shelf

Deffo considering this now will it be at that price on car audio for a while? since it will be about a month until i can afford it
anything beats what i have now tbh  although i do love what i have now because
- i didnt pay for it
- it does its job
- no one in their right mind would want to steal it
- i can chuck it around without worrying

Richie - since you installed a few you would know.
When it says flip down front, is it just a case of pressing a button and the front drops down - from the top to the bottom? (if you get me)
Its not motorised or anything
