Default Head Unit help...

My 2014 Wrangler U came with a 130 head unit. I am wanting to at least put in a backup camera and maybe some others cameras. I am not interested in NAV. Would I be better off getting a used 430 or 730, and a lockpick type device or go with an aftermarket setup? Also I realize there are other things that the 430 or 730 can do but am not familiar with all their capabilities?

Go aftermarket ....Kenwood Pioneer Clarion are so much nicer ..they don't require lock pick ($200) And some have built in Nav ....don't waste your time w. a MyGig set up

Agree. Aftermarket is much better. However, I went lockpick route to decrease risk of thief. I have front and rear cams and amps/preamp/fosgate sub and alpine components speakers. My jeeps system looks totally stock from outside and rocks inside the vehicle. Just my opinion

That is what I was thinking....could probably go a long way before spending what I would have to spend to get the 430 or 730 going like I want. I am interested in cameras most then audio next. What is the best for that purpose and are there systems that are compatible with more than one camera?
