Agree. I've had it a few weeks and still not convinced it's worth the $$$$$. I upgrade to this for easy front/rear camera access and smoother integration with my headrest monitors for the kiddos. That being said.... Just came back from 2K mile Utah trip and worked like a $3k charm.

What monitors do you have for the headrest? And does it limit the rear speakers like the factory radio does?

Also, love the large screen for Movies playback and during split screen mode. HDMI input pretty damn nice option too

U.S. $3500.00, Don't think my softtop Wrangler is going to ever see one of these.

Just Installed this weekend.. I debated for a while based on the $$$.. but in the end, bit the bullet... Alpine did a great job on the restyle.. looks OEM

Does it hold up to the elements with the top off like stock radios also? That would be a big concern for something overpriced.
