I never knew what a "HEAD UNIT" was so I looked it up, guess I had one all along.� If I start calling my radio a "HEAD UNIT", no one over 30 will know what I'm talking about...

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

"A head unit is a component of a stereo system either in a vehicle or home cinema system which provides a unified hardware interface for the various components of an electronic media system. An antiquated name for a head unit is a receiver; this article focuses on vehicular applications.
The head unit is the centerpiece of the car's sound system. Typically located in the center of the dashboard, modern head units are densely integrated electronic packages housed in detachable face plates. As high-end head units are not uncommon targets for theft, many head units are typically integrated into the vehicle's alarm system.
Head units give the user control over the vehicle's entertainment media: AM/FM radio, satellite radio, CDs, cassette tapes (although these are now uncommon), MP3, GPS navigation, Bluetooth, etc. Many audio-only head units afford the user precise control over detailed audio functions such as volume, band, frequency, speaker balance, speaker fade, bass, treble, EQ and so on."

No, but I do have a rear view camera on my Westy. Displays on my
Pioneer Nav head unit. Works nicely during the daytime.
