This is very true and I actually forgot about this lmao because my wife insists that we just wait until we get a new car..

I've replaced lots of them over the years myself but was just recently reminded (forcibly) that it was an option... Because my factory head unit in my Kia died and originally I bought an identical factory head unit to replace it with... Well, that one burned out in like 3 months...

At that point I bought the cheapest double din head unit I could find with FM and Bluetooth along with the mounting kit... Only spent about $70 and an hour of my time and it's been working great for the last 6 months or so.

Obviously, that particular option won't work for everyone but it's been great for my cheapskate ass.
