Clarion CX609 Vs Pioneer FH-P8000BT

klassics45 · 11th March 2010, 03:32

I have been looking for a 2DIN for my scorpio but i am bit confused in selecting between these two. pioneer is costlier by $50 and looks better. but i am little bit inclined towards clarion.

So can you guys let me know your thoughts?

Also, how do we use the USB if its in the rear?

Do i have to buy the mounting kit along with it?

The pio will be a better choice. The USB would extend from the rear, and can be placed in the dash. IIRC the scorpio can accommodate a 2 din easily.

i found this steering wheel remote control PIONEER CD-SR100. the reviews said, its compatible with prioneer products which as "P" in the name. so it should work with FH-P8000BT. Does anyone know whether it works without any issues.
