Originally intended as a site dedicated to “Restyle” Multi-media systems for the Jeep Wrangler JK I’ve gotten repeated requests for comparisons to Universal Double DIN stereo models. While it would be impossible to cover all Universal Double DIN models I’ve attempted to compare those that are specifically adapted to Chrysler/Jeep models (with the inclusion of a vehicle specific CAN adapter) or those that might bridge the capability between basic universal replacement and a more customized experience targeted for Wranglers. As you’ll also see in the JK Fit row, these Double DIN models extend to the Pre-2011 JK models for which fancy ‘Restyle’ options might not be available. As mentioned on my original comparison page in my Vendor Impressions post I share personal viewpoints of most of the brands listed below gathered either from personal product experience or from a Vendors online presence, unit data availability and responses to and/or ease of communication. Hopefully this insight proves useful in your product decisions. In the table below I outline the published specifications and technical aspects of the units that I could find through online research. Mention here is no guarantee of compatibility in your application so please work with your vendor(s) of interest to verify proper vehicle applicability.
