yea I still have my tow hooks. I wouldn't recommend getting the one I have. I got it off of ebay for $100 and it sucks. Its very flimsy. I'd look at getting a westin if you were you

I put almost the same JVC head unit in mine. I like the fact you can change the color of the display and buttons. I have mine on white for the button and green for the display, it almost looks like it is stock.

Yeah, I actually like front inputs better for some reason... and I don't think I've actually been in a blazer (other than mine) with a tan interior. It makes it a pain to find replacement interior panels lol.

Yeah I love it. I'm still messing around with the color to find the perfect set of colors lol.

sturg, if you upgrade the interior lights to a colored LED you can change the head unit to match

edit: did you get any of the modules for that head unit? like the bluetooth adapter or sat/hd radio.

I may do that eventually. That'd look really good. And the HD radio is built in. So you don't need an adapter for that... but no I didn't buy bluetooth or anything else.

I don't like front inputs too many wires going everywhere... How's the HD radio? I've heard a lot of things about it but I've never experienced it

I love it, I always have disliked listening to the radio on my other decks because it didn't sound as good as when I was playing my cd or ipod. But now the radio is equal to the quality of the ipod and cd. It blew my mind actually at first. It's totally worth it to me.
