Post a PIC of your latest purchase.

Just keep in mind that Amazon is not a Pioneer authorized dealer… which means a couple of things. 1) The manufacturer warranty is no longer valid. They will only honor the warranty when it is purchased from an authorized dealer. 2) You will not get any technical support from Pioneer if you have any questions / issues come up. 3) I can almost guarantee that unit is refurbished. Pioneer will not sell to unauthorized dealers, so the only place that Amazon can buy it from are refurbishment dealers… but they do not say anywhere that it is a refurbished unit. I was burned on a couple of remote starters (my Python alarm / start in my car and the one I put in my wife’s Jeep) that I thought I was buying for a good deal. Within a year they both crapped out on me but the manufacturer warranty was void because it was purchased through an unauthorized dealer. When they ran the serial numbers, they were both shown to be non-manufacturer refurbished units. Amazon never said anything at all about them not being a new-in-box unit and there was absolutely no indication anywhere on the unit or packaging. The ONLY way I found out was by running the serial number.

It may not matter to you, just figured I would give you a heads up while you still have the ability to return it if you choose. I will send you a PM with what Kenwood options I have if you are interested.
