my suggestion would be
Boston Acoustics...you can find good prices on Crutchfield...i had a 10 in the trunk and for me it wasnt enough...a 12 is perfect...just have to tune it the way you want it and it'll be perfect for you

How much is the HKPP going for nowdays?
I'd lean towards just replacing the head unit with one that has iPod/iPhone integration built in, some are pretty cheap.
If you don't have any experience installing stuff certainly leave it to the pros. You don't want to tear your dash up or blow a bunch of
fuses, also if they damage it, they pay for it.
So take pictures before the install and after....

crutchfield. they know everything about that stuff, and they're really helpful. im sure they could walk u through whats wrong, and u could probably buy the correct wiring kits from them if u have the wrong one.

it should be the only wire hooked up to the
parking brake... i have never looked at it to tell you for sure....
on a side note i would go ahead and wire in a switch just cause it is easier and one day the dvd while moving might be a godsend if you are on a long trip with kids...

Not so sure that an aftermarket source unit will work with the
Rockford Fosgate amp up under the dash. That little amp is more than a simple 4-channel amp and I'm pretty sure there's multiple inputs on that amp that tie to the factory source unit.

Hey guys .. i bouught me a new JVC head unit for me 1st gen X from Crutchfield. As I went to go splice up the wires to the harness kit .. it seems that the black
ground wire coming from the unit itself didn't have a ground wire to connect to on the harness that they gave me.
So I called up and asked and they said that the black ground wire was to be mounted to a screw connected to the ...

Looks like a good head unit. Pioneer is generally a good brand. They have a good reputation and I haven't heard any complaints.
About the installation...assuming you have a double din size stereo in your 04 X (thats what I have in mine), you will need a mounting sleeve to "downsize" the slot to single din to fit the
new head unit. I think they have those at Best Buy (however be careful ...
