We Need Stereo With Needs of FM/CD/Bluetooth and Budget for RV
Published 02/06/2018
Question:
Thanks for the answers and spec drawings. Since we already have a Nav system on our RV the JRV9000 is more radio than we need and over our budget. Can you recommend anything else that would better meet our needs of FM/CD/Bluetooth and budget. If something has a smaller footprint I can make a filler/overlay plate to accommodate.

Per the manufacturer: To replace the VR185 you would still need to do some modification to the hole as the VR185 was produced in a time where the 1.8 DIN size was in demand, since then we see only demand for single DIN and double DIN radios. The replacement unit will be taller, but not by too much.
To be honest if you plan on making a filler/ overlay to fit the radio, then we should go back to the # JWM60A. When it comes to budget while having all of the features that you need, in regards to radio, cd, and Bluetooth, this is the way to go.
