I just purchased a pioneer AVH-P8400BH from crutchfield NEW $499 and I am soo angry.

 

I purchased it becaused I liked the idea of removing the face plate to avoid theft.

 

So everytime I park and leave my car, the face plate comes off fine and goes everywhere with me

 

But when I go back to my car and TRY to put the face plate back on, its a PAIN IN THE ASS!!!!

 

At first I had to slide it up then click it into place about 3 times before it actually powered up.

 

Then, 5 times.

 

Now today, I probably tried for 30 minutes and it never powered on!!!

 

I've had single din face plates before and NEVER had this issue. Wtf could be causing this?!

Its not a pain in the ass to remove or refit the face plate ... you're OBVIOUSLY doing it wrong. Takes me a second to take it off and put it on without any issues whatsoever. Learn how to use the unit before you break it. Seriously kid. I had this unit for a year and not ONE issue. Its not the unit its the OWNER.
