Default back to stock

looks like im back to the stock radio for a few weeks, but its for a good cause im getting this http://www.cardomain.com/item/KENKDCMP828?vq_id=none. my dad offered to buy for current cd player for $180 so im gonna save for a few weeks and buy a new cd player.
we recenty bought my wife the kenwood mp7028 and WOW talk about nice it has alot of options that ive wanted in a cd player and the one im getting that RDS. it displays the song title and all that cool stuff when ur listing to the radio, my aunts van had it and i fell in love with it. o yeah it has a built in g-force meter also, im sure its not accurate but its cool to watch the car turn when u turn.

my Aurora'* stock radio was RDS and very few stations actually displayed the song name, or station name. It seems as though few stations support the RDS.. Just what I've observed.

yah only a few support it but sometimes you can program it to scroll the name like on my headunit you can just type whatever u want to call it and it will scroll it instead of being blank. rds is cool tho if it has it.

You'll be busy putting the little car on the screen and won't care about RDS..

I have that same HU and like it. Tons of adjustments for sound and all the outputs. Anyhow...G tech is built in and you'll enjoy watchin the car as you drive..it drives..if you turn it turns.

Sirius ready...Cd changer ready

Got the 2 zone built in. So if you hook up a seperate cd changer you press the 2 zone button and you can play the seperate cd changer on either the fronts or backs and the radio on the other set.

You can listen to one thing..and the kids another.
