head unit suggestions

i got around to finding an eclipse dealer which happened to be car toys btw, and they did not have the 5445 in stock, but wanted 260 for the 5425. is that a decent price figuring i still need a harness and mounting kit, or should i look elsewhere. if the second, can anyone suggest a decent shop in north houston area?

Nakamichi CD-400... if you know where to look under $300 shipped"I don't play games. I play Nakamichi and that for real yo" - Probably some japanese kid said this in the early 80's trying to sell stereo out of his trunk lol.

For the average car audio customer I will suggest the Eclipse stuff before the Nak, based on the fact that it has apealing features and maintains good sound quality. The Nak deck sounds good but they are a harder sell now adays based on their limited feature set. Also the Nak have their issues with skipping and this is an area where the Eclipse stuff accelsdouble-secret reverse-osmosis speaker-cone-induced high-level interference distortion, Its a killer

well i ended up gettin an cd8053 the other day for 300 so im pretty happy with that, but now i need a decent amp to push 50 rms x 4 @ 4 ohms for my speakers. are there any specific amps i should look for? right now i am leaning towards getting a jbl but am open to suggestions. thanks for all the help. ive been reading on 12volt for a while now and there is really a lot of good information.
