The Clarion VX401 is a very nice touch screen radio. I put it in my ex-gf's car and she loves it. Clarion VX401 DVD receiver at Crutchfield.com and you can generally find them cheaper than $300.

Here's my radio btw

It doesn't fill the entire hole the factory radio was in, but it doesn't look bad either.

Good quality and easy install I assume?

Sorry for the delay, but yes. It wired up like any other aftermarket radio and has very good quality audio and video. The one thing I did that went against the usual install was bypass the parking-brake video controller thing that doesn't allow you to watch videos unless it has power. I wired it to an extra wire so it would play video all the time.

Thanks in advance

I can't say for the blazer, I was putting it into a VW Jetta that had a few extra wires coming off the aftermarket wiring harness.
