I have $800 to spend
Now that appearance/performance mods are done I'm now looking to start a few audio mods. I have about $800 that I'm looking to spend initially to get a good head unit installed. I don't need navigation because I have a Garmin nuvi 360 for that. I have been looking on ebay at a couple different units, such as;

http://cgi.ebay.com/JENSEN-VM9022-2-...QQcmdZViewItem
http://cgi.ebay.com/KENWOOD-DDX6019-...QQcmdZViewItem
Those ones are under my limit, but that gives me enough to buy the accessories I may need (wiring harness & mounting kit?) and also allows for maybe some speakers possibly. I come to you guys because I'm not sure which system is the best out there for my price range and I'm not exactly sure of everything I'll need to install a system (I've never installed a system in any vehicle I have ever owned myself). I'm a real novice at audio because it just has never really been a big priority for me so I'm hoping some of the more knowledgable folks her can help me out. Thanks

Hit Travis up at www.kcautosound.com . His radios come with free mounting brackets and harnesses. He even wired mine up so all I had to do was plug it in. I'm sure he could hook ya up plus you're not gambling with an ebay merchant. He stands behind his stuff. I know he carries Kenwood, JVC, Clarion, Sony, Panasonic, Dual, and a ton of other manufacturers.

Check out the W200/205 from Alpine. Those would be good units for what you are trying to do. 
But if those are your only choices go w/ either the Kenwood or Clarion (Kenwood 1st)
Titansu- (not that i have a lot of room to talk) Stop writing that.

I would pick up a in dash DVD unit... they are AWESOME.
I use mine all the time.
I have a Kenwood and it's great.
Cheap prices too.

I would save a few more dollars and get the Kenwood DNX7100. It's not that much over $800.
