Default Mods on my 12 Accent sedan so far

Hey, check it out. Been doing a few things here and there to the Accent. Black 16" Advan wheels, new LED Eagle Eye smoked tail lights, Flying T Tomato A&P badges, Import Shark OEM style spoiler, KDM turn signal mirrors, HY-016 Asian market touchscreen stereo, kicker speakers all doors, MTX 8" powered sub woofer, KDM pedal/dead pedal metal covers, stubby carbon fiber antenna, KDM GDI badge. I want carbon fiber vinyl wrap on front bumper with the matte black in center diamond shape and gloss black roof...coming soon.

Default Stereo

Here are a few pics of the stereo...works great only thing is I lost my steering wheel controls...no big deal. I forgot to show backup camera...but image shows on screen with colored bars to represent danger. All in all a great deal for $380.00 w free shipping including the camera. I had Best Buy install all my new speakers in the doors, head unit/camera, and sub tube in the trunk. Sounds amazing with just enough bass to not be obnoxious.

How is the GPS in the stereo? Is it responsive enough not to be laggy? I would love to see a video of it in action!

Same. Also, how long does it take to boot up after you turn the car on?

Very good looking car! The only similarities you and I have is the location of the GDi badge lol.

The stereo loads pretty quickly...maybe 30 seconds or so when starting car. The GPS is great...as good or better than the Garmin Nuvi I was using...only no traffic updates. If I go to a heavily populated area...I will still use the Garmin only for the traffic re-routing. This is the same stereo that another member showed videos of...excellent, and includes the stock looking bezel with matte black which is much better than that horrible gloss piano black stock stuff...scratches to easy. I have a carbon fiber overlay from Luxon to go over, but I can't figure out how to take off shift lever...any help here apprecaited. I forgot to mention that I also put in Osram nightbreaker bulbs in headlights and yellow arctic bulbs in foglights...much improved visibility for night driving.
