Hey guys.

I recently bought a 2007 Nissan Versa hatchback in very good shape and am thinking of replacing the stereo head-unit with a touchscreen GPS unit.

My question is, has anyone gotten one of the double din GPS head-units that seem to be littering e-bay at around $250? Are they any good? The descriptions look great but I wonder if they fall in the "too good to be true" category.

I mean if you can get a chinese system that works well for under $300, why would anyone go with the $1000 factory installed option?

So are these any good? They look relatively easy to install, or will I be pulling on my hair after pulling on the wires?

Thanks for any help!
