I had a touch screen panasonic around 11 years ago it was a disk changer and it worked great you dont need buttons.

Was it easy to select things without staring at the screen though?

yes it was you can see everthing very well and you just barely touch it.it was really nice and easy to use.when i get mine installed all you no how it works out.and you will be able to match the color of the empeg screen what ever color screen your using which is cool.

Yeah, please share. The two gripes I've got with my Sony tuner / CD player is 1) doesn't match the empeg (or the dash lights or anything else), and 2) It's almost impossible to use with gloves on (here in Minnesota). The Panasonic sounds nice those ways...

You just need a remote car starter

5 speed.

I know it can be rigged to remote start, and actually I know how, but - I've seen first hand what happens if you try it while it's in gear. And I always leave it in gear.

I did get seat heaters though!

I got it instaled today and my whole system sounds 10 times better now.moved my empeg lower on the console.my empeg has never sounded better.I got the touch screen to match the empeg screen.I can match any colcr lens i want.I was thinking of selling my empeg because it sounded so bad,the last guy that did the install had it all jacked up.it sounds so clean now i did'nt want to get out of my truck.out of all the head units i have looked at this one matches the empeg perfectley.even the visuals.
