Cost to install eclipse avn50d

The dealer wants $2200 for this unit installed.

If I find a deal on a used one, what would be a good number to budget for installation?

Need to read up a bit more on this..I do like the navigation interface...def want a backup cam..

Don't care so much about upgrading the sound system..if it's better than stock, that's fine but I don't care...I got the factory sub which sounds way overblown to me..but I just got the truck yesterday.

Thanks in advance for any comments or suggestion!

Print out the instructions and take it to a car audio shop and get an installation estimate. Looks like you have a few hundred dollars to save, but that's your choice.

Oh, that's not bad at all. I was thinking it was much more complex. Thanks for the suggestion. I will look closer at it!

this was interesting:

"First, you want to make sure the camera is a true reverse camera. This means that the video camera reverses the image so the image can be shown like a rear view mirror. If you happen to purchase a camera that works as a normal video camera, backing up will be harder than ever. "..

lol...had no idea..
