My favorite Alpine and headunit ever, and I've had just about everything top end, Eclipse, Alpine, Nakimichi..

7897's are VERY sought after. It's the Alpine that takes up 1 din, but folds out and has a larger screen. $700 new.

Only selling because I will hopefully be buying a new car, and they all have funky built in radios now, so this will be useless.
