You can get em cheaper hen that. Like $50....

That'* the one I got, think mine was 55. had mine put here, but make sure it will recieve the signal when you put it on a sharp angle like mine. It works just fine though. other rig it somewhere in the center console somewhere,

Do the head unit thats you purchase have to have a remote control in order for the module to work?

From what I understand....

Yes....Your radio has to have remote control compatability...

and I do believe you have to have your remote in hand, as where
i think you have to program that module with your existing remote...


correct me if Im wrong...

Right you are, HU must have a remote and it'* needed to program the unit.

So if your HU is remote capable, i'd still have to buy the remote, just to program the controls?

Should'nt a remote head unit come with a remote controll?

Most decent ones do.
