It even triggered me, and I’m not even germ-phobic.

I really like JVC, Pioneer, and Kenwood best. Too bad this one only has 45w/channel. I’m looking at other units that have 200w/c, so I don’t need an external amp.
I have to tell you something interesting.. I don’t know if it’s based on fact or not. I had that time set issue with my current head unit. Then, when I replaced my battery (had it tested at Goodyear and they said it was “cell delaminating”, causing the CCA to drop low), I reset the clock and settings, NO more issues! It now stays right on time with my iPhone! I don’t know how to explain that. However, my MPG also increased by 2-4mpg because of the new battery, and radio reception strangely better too.

Correct battery voltage and CC amperage allow the computers to do their jobs with the information the sensors provide.

Thought I would chime in as far as the reverse camera goes...if you really want to actually have good reverse vision, as well as recording, the wolfbox rear view mirror cameras are amazing for the price. Look them up. I have one in both cars.

I’ve never heard of Wolfbox. This is very good info, because it broadens the ability to find more media head units without requiring the camera ready option.

Music sounds better in the HHR than it does in my 2016 Camaro with the Bose system.
